National Partnership in Early Learning and Childcare

The National Partnership in Early Learning and Childcare are committed to creating environments for the long-term in which all children can flourish, and have come together to help shape policy and nurture futures for children and families nationwide.

About us

We are the National Partnership in Early Learning and Childcare (NPELC), an organisation formed by ten of the largest childcare providers across England.

The NPELC’s aim is to ensure that early years and childcare provision is high-quality, delivered by a sector which is both sustainable and valued, and underpins the economy, which is so reliant on this key service.
We are a major collective voice in the sector that is aligned on our core purpose. 

We will share evidence-based data and collectively, offer years of experience of the profession, upon which policy makers can rely, to help formulate an early years strategy for the long-term.
