enabled me to lead my team with clearer pedagogical principles, tighter focus and greater enthusiasm. ‘Life, Knowledge and Beauty’ is our refrain and Froebelian litmus test. We are on a journey to enable our nursery environment and team to be 'active, meaningful and engaging', where children can grow and learn at their own pace, with adults who understand their development and cultivate their learning - we are on a journey to be Fabulously Froebelian!”
Gillian Morris, Chief Executive of The Froebel Trust said:
“This course was developed by The Froebel Trust with our experienced Frobelian partners in response to requests from leading practitioners for short practically focussed local courses. We are delighted that Early Education is supporting us in making these courses widely accessible and value the expertise that they bring.”
Beatrice Merrick, Chief Executive of Early Education, said:
“We are excited to be partnering with Froebel Trust to deliver this carefully developed programme of courses. We know that practitioners will welcome the opportunity to reflect on their practice and embed core Froebelian principles in their provision. As two charities with very similar values and aims, we want to bring high quality affordable professional development opportunities to early years practitioners wherever they are in the country, and the Travelling Froebel Tutors will do exactly that.”
