This news is brought to you by Slough Borough Council's Early Years team, for the attention of Early Years Providers.
The Department for Education (DfE) is inviting Reception teachers and teaching assistants to take part in research on their experience of training and working in Reception. We want to learn more about what you do and what works for you to help us make future improvements!
The research will be taking place between November 2025 and end of January 2026 and will consist of surveys and interviews (lasting 60 minutes or less) via MS Teams. To thank participants for their time, we will be offering an incentive of £70 for taking part in a research interview.
If you are interested in taking part, and/or know someone who is, please fill in this form and one of our researchers will be in touch.
