Early Years buy-in support
In addition to the support available through the Oxfordshire County Council School Improvement Guarantee and Setting and Childminder Improvement Guarantee we offer buy-in support services and training packages from the team on a subscription or pay as you go basis.
Subscribing to a package gives you access to the toolkit of resources.
We support all early education and childcare providers in Oxfordshire, including:
- day nursery, and pre-school staff
- school staff working with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)
- childminders
- playworkers in after-school, breakfast, holiday clubs/playschemes
- governors and committees, headteachers, owners and managers.
Our buy-in support packages are also available to early years providers based outside of Oxfordshire.
