Better equipping young children for life
On receipt of funding, we will contact headteachers in socio-economically deprived regions in England to let them know they can have THE BIG 3 + ME Personal, Social and Emotional Development programme for ages 3 to 5 at a heavily discounted price.
Improving 100s of children's wellbeing & life chances
We enable children aged 3 to 5 to gain essential social & emotional skills that are vital for learning. Those growing up in socio-economically disadvantaged communities often have under-developed language, communication, social & emotional skills so start falling behind. Our programme THE BIG 3 + ME sets children up for life, improving wellbeing & life chances - but schools need it & the training at prices they can afford - giving us a grant allows discounted prices for struggling schools.
60 to 90 children in 10 disadvantaged schools
