The early years education and childcare sector is changing fast - and that means that Nursery World has to make sure it is one step ahead in providing all the news and information that you need to help you do your job. This week, you'll find a reader survey included with the magazine, and we'd be really grateful if you could take a few minutes to fill it in. Tell us what your information needs are, how well Nursery World is providing for them, and what you'd like to see more, and less, of each week. Everyone who responds will be entered into our prize draw for the chance to win one of five bundles of great children's books.
