Headteacher of Redcliffe Nursery School Sam Williams
Manage episode 360593379 series 2852838
A large part of raising the early years of the next generation is entrusted to nurseries. But the sector is in a protracted crisis of funding and stability. Childcare costs in the UK are among the most expensive in the world, and direct government support for nurseries has not kept up with increasing needs. Especially in the context of an austerity ravaged nation.
So how to do the best for our young ‘uns? Sam Williams is the recently appointed Headteacher of Redcliffe Nursery, set within a diverse and working class community. Neil and Sam chat about the context, forward thinking approaches to child development and what has to happen to give all kids the best start.
