The organisation, which previously had a thistle logo, hopes the new design will project it as 'modern, dynamic, flexible and adaptable'. SPPA chief executive Ian McLaughlan said, 'I am confident the new image will promote a greater confidence among our members, local authorities, central Government and other partners in the changing role of voluntary sector childcare and pre-school education agencies.
'It also reflects the changing nature of SPPA over the past few years and our ongoing commitment to serve some 40,000 pre-school children in over 1,600 voluntary-run pre-school groups throughout Scotland.
'SPPA has, through its recently published Strategic Plan for 2002-2004, demonstrated that it can adapt to the changing early years environment, just as it has done throughout its history of campaigning for better quality learning opportunities for the under-fives.'
