Earlier this week @ippr published a major childcare reform report by Isos Director Jodie Reed. You can hear Jodie talking about it on @BBCWomansHour from Tuesday or access the full here https://t.co/e6xW8aZJj7

[IPPR @IPPR]

It’s excellent news that the government is committed to expanding childcare, but increased entitlement must be matched by more provision and places.

Check out this thought provoking piece from the excellent Isos Associate @salhogg on the need to think differently about how we structure specialist expertise in order to for local systems to deliver better early support.

[Sally Hogg @salhogg]

My new blog for @IsosPartnership describes why we need to move away from the traditional universal/targeted/specialist triangle, and instead deploy specialist expertise strategically across the population.

Delighted to see @cypnow covering our #Beyondboundaries report about gaps in the early years system and how all parts of the system can work together for young children. https://t.co/dx16W3QjnC @JodeReed

[Isos Partnership @IsosPartnership]

Here's our latest report, with analysis and recommendations on building better integrated early years systems and services. #beyondboundaries #earlyyears

[Jodie Reed @JodeReed]

Why do some babies and young children fall through the net and not get help they need? What gets in the way of early years services working effectively together? And what works? Our NEW report #BeyondBoundaries today for @londoncouncils @IsosPartnership https://t.co/DiOmOeBEQf

[Jodie Reed @JodeReed]

Great to see our #BeyondBoundaries report covered in @standardnews. We propose local, London & national changes to get early years systems working better together - and include insight from local systems already joining up well for 0-5s https://t.co/sLGXpvjg3P

[First 1001 Days @first1001days]

£3.1 billion has been allocated by the UK Government for “catch-up” initiatives for school-aged children in the last year. A fraction of this money, wisely invested could drive the system change and service improvement required to give all our babies the best start in life. 9/10

[First 1001 Days @first1001days]

National Government can take action now to enable joined-up local action, and to ensure that no local area is allowed to fail its youngest citizens. #WorkingForBabies 8/10

[First 1001 Days @first1001days]

We do not want to return to normal after the pandemic, because for many babies and their families in the UK, normal was not good enough. We must build back better for babies. #WorkingForBabies 7/10
