Little Minds: This groundbreaking research project will embed mindful pedagogies in early years settings to support children’s executive functioning skills and improve their speech, language, and communication. Adopting a realist methodology and working with practitioners in their own settings, Little Minds will develop a deep understanding of “what works for whom, under what circumstances, and why” to advance empowering educational practices which are flexible enough to adapt to a range of children, with differing needs, in a diverse array of early years settings.

The project team were delighted to share news of how the research is progressing at the International UKLA conference in Brighton. Here are the slides from the presentation.
