Jennie Lindon compares it with England's version England and Scotland have now both directly addressed quality for the under-threes. In England, the Birth to Three Matters framework was published by the DfES/Sure Start in November 2002. In Scotland, a consultation paper published in 2003 has now evolved into Birth to Three: supporting our youngest children.

We were thrilled to read the article about Susan Isaacs ('Enquiring minds', 20 January), as a nursery school started by Dr Isaacs in 1928 with funding from an American benefactor called Natalie Davies, whose son was one of our first pupils.
