Busy Bees takes up NDNA quality scheme

Management Provision
Nursery chain Busy Bees is investing 28,000 in piloting the NDNA's quality assurance programme, called eQC, across 33 of its self-governing settings.

At a launch event in Hinckley, Leicestershire, last week, Busy Bees senior staff were given a presentation on how the scheme would help them to analyse every aspect of their practice and business development under the EYFS.

The programme was endorsed by Laura Bryant-Smith, DCSF official for early years and special educational needs, who said she welcomed the opportunity to gain greater insight into quality and its potential to boost outcomes for all children and families.

The NDNA emphasised that the programme has been written and developed by practitioners, researchers and early years experts. Training modules are carefully phased to ensure that practitioners approach quality step by step.
