The Nursery World Awards 2017 are the leading accolades for the early years sector.
Last year’s awards attracted a wealth of fantastic entries, judged by an eminent panel of early years experts from across the sector. The ceremony at London’s Brewery was a fitting celebration of excellence, and this year’s promises to be even better.
Our roll of honour last year included Nursery of the Year Atelier, Nursery Chain Mulberry Bush, Pre-School Quackers, School Early Years Team Everton Nursery School and Family Centre, and Health and Well-Being Award winner Children’s Sleep Charity.
For 2017, there are two new categories – Working with Birth to Threes, for best practice with the youngest children, and Early Years Launch, for new nurseries, pre-schools, schools or childminding services.
The Nursery World Awards are open to everyone in early years education and childcare, shining a light on best practice and helping to raise the profile of the sector. Through all the challenges that face them, dedicated professionals continue to improve their skills and qualifications and do a fantastic job for young children. This is your chance to be recognised and celebrated.
