Being Two is a Department for Education-funded project that aims to improve the quality of experiences for two-year-olds in early years settings and, particularly, to support better outcomes for the most disadvantaged children in this age group.
The project builds on the support by Pen Green Research, Development and Training Base and Leadership Centre of a thriving network of Early Years Teaching Centres (EYTC), which for the past three years have been sharing reflective practices with local settings with the aim of boosting quality of provision.
Under the Being Two initiative, Pen Green seconded associate trainers to nine different EYTCs for two years. These trainers, alongside co-workers in each location, are now busy training and supporting early years workers in private nurseries, pre-schools, children's centres, nursery schools and registered childminders working with two-year-olds and families accessing the free entitlement.
