Educators in mainstream inclusive settings, early years and beyond
Special schools staff, therapists and psychologists
Parents, family members and other caregivers
Bright Start is appropriate for inclusive, mainstream early years settings in which children with learning and developmental difficulties learn alongside more typically developing peers. The programme also addresses the needs of children whose difficulties may stem from social and linguistic disadvantages. Bright Start is designed to be used alongside existing school content curricula.
Bright Start is used by those working with children who have been diagnosed with special educational needs, are at risk of developmental delay, or may be working at earlier stages of learning than their chronological age.
Training is available for parents and others in similar caregiver roles. The emphasis on family and caregiver involvement in the cognitive development of the child is particularly important for early years and multi-agency services.
