The free Tiney Inclusive Education Guide is co-authored by early years expert Laua Henry-Allain and tiney’s head of education Matt Lloyd-Rose. It has already been downloaded more than 3,000 times.

The guide aims to be a reflective tool with topics covered including how to examine your own anti-racist behaviours, how to create an inclusive early learning environment and how to talk to under-fives about diversity.

It also outlines how early years professionals can get to know the communities they are operating in, work with families to celebrate differences and broach difficult conversations if they occur.

Ms Henry-Allain believes that encouraging children to develop ‘inclusive, open and empathetic attitudes towards themselves and others’ is vital.
