Study of Early Education and Development (SEED): Good Practice in Early Education

Meg Callanan, Margaret Anderson, Sarah Haywood, Ruth Hudson and Svetlana Speight - NatCen Social Research (2017)

This research report is part of a large-scale UK study running from 2013-2020 that builds on the EPPE/EPPSE study led by Professor Kathy Sylva (1997-2014). The SEED study is an evaluation of the effect of early education on children's outcomes, the quality of provision and value for money of providing funded early years education to 6,000 two-year-olds from lower income families. The component study that informs this report explored how good-quality early years settings articulate, establish and sustain good practice that has the potential to improve child outcomes.
