Super Troupers is a management project currently rolling out in County Durham which aims to improve standards of management in the area by promoting 'buddying'. With funding support from the DCSF, so far this year there have been two meetings involving ten nursery managers from a combination of standalone private providers and private nurseries based in children's centres. They have been selected on the basis of being competent, effective managers who are keen to learn from each other.
