Nutbrown Review - last chance to sign up for free consultation event

Professor Cathy Nutbrown is holding one-day events across the country to give the early years and childcare workforce the chance to contribute to the qualifications review.

The call for evidence for the independent review of early education and childcare qualifications runs from 28 October - 23 December.

Professor Nutbrown has said she wants to hear the views of childcare and early years workers.

'I want to create as many opportunities as possible for everyone who has an interest in the qualfiications needed to work with our youngest children to get involved in my review. The regional meetings and the online questionnaire are two key ways for people to give me their views, ' she said.

Consultation events, organised by the Department for Education, will be held on Monday 5 December at the Thomas Coram Centre in London, and Monday 12 December at Birmingham University.

The London event is fully booked but there are still places available for 12 December in Birmingham.
