Support & Development After Training
LOCAL NETWORK DAYS
We encourage exisiting PAFT programmes to hold local network days enabling practitioners to share best practice and offer peer support. Network days can count towards Continuing Professional Development (CPD) hours. Wherever possible and practical, two members of the PAFT UK office will attend local network days to co-facilitate and support.

NATIONAL NETWORK DAY 2019
Thanks to Hachette Book Group, publishers of these fabulous toddler books.
Dr Jacqueline Harding from Middlesex University, a key-note speaker at our National Network Day, advises Hachette on child development and early literacy. The gifts were all very warmly received by parent educators from across the UK who work directly with families of babies and toddlers, giving information and support regarding child development and parenting.
Professor Paul Ramchandani is LEGO® Professor of Play in Education, Development and Learning at Cambridge University. He leads a research team investigating the role of play in children’s early development. He also works as a Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist in the UK National Health Service.
“The child of the future” we must prepare for their future, not our past. Dr Jacqueline Harding, University of Middlesex.
Founder of www.tomorrowschildtv.com Tomorrow’s Child works with clients from across Europe to ensure their media proposition for children is developmentally correct and engages the young developing brain in the best way possible.
