I was delighted to start the new Parliamentary term by joining 300 early years practitioners at the Newham Early Years Conference. It was inspiring to be in a room full of people committed to giving every child the best possible start in life. the best start in life.

I was delighted to be able to talk about Labour’s ambition to reform the early years sector to deliver high quality childcare and early year years education that works for children, parents and early years professionals.
