The UK faced a recent heatwave and is braced for more to come. As worrying as this is for us, the health implications for children on the frontline of the climate emergency are so much more dire and exacerbated by fragile health systems as well as the recent cuts to overseas development assistance. The UK government must go further and faster to protect children from the devastating impacts of heatwaves and other climate extremes, both at home and abroad.

Why the Early Years MatterOur early years of life are an unparalleled period of growth and discovery, where brain development accelerates at a remarkable rate. During early childhood, every interaction, experience, and playful moment contributes to lifelong learning and parents are their children’s first and most important educators. Supporting early learning and development is crucial; it shapes the foundation for emotional, social, and cognitive skills that carry us forward into adulthood.The Early Years team at Save the Children UK have been working hard to develop an Early Years Knowledge Bank. This is a set of free resources, designed to inform and inspire early years practice, research and advocacy. So far, the bank has offered key insights across three core themes: Young Children's Voices, the Importance of Early Years, and the Impact of COVID-19 on Young Children.The team are excited to announce that they are launching their fourth and final theme on Play. But why is play important? And how can we support all children in having the time, space and permission to play?

It's so hard when children get worried about things. All we want to do is help reassure them, but sometimes simple reassurance just doesn’t do the trick.

The latest childcare report from IPPR (The Childcare Challenge: How can the government deliver a real childcare guarantee), commissioned by Save the Children UK, was published this week. It comes at a critical time as just last week the UK Government announced their aim for 75% of children to be ‘school ready’ by 2028, up from 68%.This target reflects a shift in focus for the UK Government from childcare to child development and has the potential to make a real difference to the lives of children in the UK. Good quality childcare is critical not just because it enables parents to access paid employment, but because it has the power to address inequalities children face before they enter school.Given the importance of childcare in families’ lives, it’s deeply concerning that the findings in this new report reveal that only one third of the poorest fifth of parents with young children use formal childcare, compared with two-thirds of those in the highest earning households. This is in part due to the lack of childcare places and the lower quality of childcare in more deprived areas as well as the exclusion of some families from the funded hours offer. The challenges facing the childcare sector could undermine the Government’s target around school-readiness and see the attainment gap between children experiencing financial disadvantage compared with those who aren’t increasing
