We have been chosen as finalists for a Nursery World Award due to our commitment to Inclusive Practice and our Journey to Inclusion!

Below is the endorsement from the local authority supporting our application…

‘As a Local Authority, we have worked closely with Bright Beginnings over a few years and consistently recognise the setting as a model of outstanding early years practice. Their values-led, inclusive approach and strong leadership have supported the development of an ambitious, well-sequenced curriculum, which the authority has used to exemplify effective curriculum design in practice. Bright Beginnings has made a significant contribution to wider system improvement by actively sharing their practice with other early years providers, including presenting at our most recent early years conference where they supported the local Equality, Diversity and Inclusion agenda and explored practice linked to protected characteristics. Their commitment to inclusion, high-quality environments, and workforce development continues to have a positive impact on children, families, and the wider early years community, positioning the setting as a trusted exemplar and valued partner in local improvement work.’ – Helen Whitehouse – Leeds Early Years Advisor

Good Luck Bright Beginnings!
