High/Scope represents UK for world event

* The director of High/Scope UK, Joan Norris, is to be the UK's national representative at the next World Forum on Early Care and Education. This year's World Forum in Auckland, New Zealand, attracted relatively few UK participants, but Ms Norris hopes to encourage more early years practitioners to take part next year. She said, 'There's lots to be learned from people in different parts of the world and it's good to put out information about what we're doing.'
