Partners in Greater Manchester and across the country are passionate about breaking down any barriers Early Years setting maybe experiencing which could stop children moving more. 

To find out these barriers we are asking Early Years settings to complete this survey - www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/XXHHY7N.   

What is the survey?

A survey to find out what physical activity looks like in Early Years settings nationally. We want to hear from  Early Years staff working in Reception and Nursery Classes in schools, Private, voluntary and independent (PVI) settings, Childminders, pre-schools, playgroups, children’s centres or any other similar setting. This survey is open to anyone working in an Early Years setting in England. You can be working at any level. Respondents can be apprentices or trainees.

Why it’s important?

The results will be used to help tailor support to Early Years Settings. It will also be used in conversations with strategic organisations to raise the profile of the work being delivered in Early Years and show how this is helping every child to have The Best Start in Life.
