Early Years Conference 2026
Our 2026 conference, held in March, was once again a sold‑out success.
Delegates enjoyed an inspiring keynote from Dr Gemma Goldenberg, Deputy Director of ISEY, who explored the science behind how outdoor environments can supercharge early childhood development.
Across the day, three practical workshops offered insights into:
- the importance of stimulation and regulation in learning environments
- making the most of nature to support early language development
- the link between movement and learning in the early years
All attendees agreed attending the conference:
- Improved their knowledge and understanding
- Boosted their confidence
- Inspired them
