High-quality early years education and care, co-ordinated by one department, goes hand in hand with reduced child poverty, according to the report Working for Inclusion: An Overview of European Union Early Years Services and their Workforce, released at the Working for Inclusion conference in Norway last month.
The report is published by Children in Scotland, lead partner in a two-year, 10-country, European information and practice sharing programme examining how the early years workforce can support social inclusion and address poverty.
The research forms part of the two-year Working for Inclusion programme, funded by the European Commission.
