About the CPD course
In this workshop learners will have the opportunity to define what gender stereotypes are and consider how educators have an influence on the stereotypes children hold. Activities and discussion will support participants to discover how the commercial sector continue stereotypes based on gender. Finally; the course explores how to support families to recognise and challenge stereotypes and bias.
The Early Years Alliance is the largest and most representative early years membership organisation in England. We support early years providers to deliver quality, affordable and sustainable care and learning to families, and work to ensure that all children, regardless of background, are given the best possible start in life. The Alliance’s vision is a society where every child enjoys the same opportunity to learn through play. We believe families should be at the centre of policy-making and parents empowered to become more involved with their child’s learning and development.
