Are you an Early Years leader? Join us at the Department of Education, University of Oxford for a special twilight, after-school session focused on leadership for learning.

With an increasing spotlight on early childhood education in both settings and primary schools, it's crucial that leaders and teachers can evidence their intentions and show how they support the learning of both young children and staff, through the promotion of excellent practice, improved child learning and family support. The PLEY Scale helps support leaders working in centres and schools with young children to achieve their full potential and enjoy the benefits and pleasure of delivering high-quality early education and care, as well as acting as a scaffold to improve their understanding of high-quality leadership for learning. Join us for a twilight, after-school session that will introduce leaders to the PLEY Scale and discuss its implications for leadership practice.

• Prof Iram Siraj OBE, Professor of Child Development and Education, University of Oxford
