The 2025 National Early Years Conference: Leading the future in early years: achieving excellence in education

Getting the best start in education is crucial for a child’s success throughout their school career and into adulthood. Research shows that a strong foundation in the early years leaves children equipped with the tools they need to grow and thrive.

We believe that the Foundation Stage lays the groundwork for lifelong learning and are committed to supporting practitioners to achieve successful outcomes for the children in their care. Our conference will explore the key aspects of excellence in early childhood education. Excellence which means our young people are fully supported in their development and learning and that they are prepared for the next step in their educational journey.

Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking event where you will hear from a range of speakers and take part in workshops with the aim of enriching the educational experiences of young children with high-quality pedagogy, provision and practice.

We have planned an online event as we are aware that taking time away from your setting might be difficult, this also allows us to open the conference up to early years educators across the country.

Tickets are available to purchase via the HFL Education Hub at a cost of £114+VAT.
