This National Training Programme provides practitioners with an opportunity to explore the concepts of Diversity and Equality within the preschool context and will support participants in the development of an inclusive early years environment for all children.

Participation on this programme is required in order for you to receive your ‘AIM Inclusive Play Pack’ announced by the DCYA earlier this month. ‘AIM Inclusive Play’ is a set of resources to support inclusive practice within pre-school settings. These resources, which include equipment, toys and materials, also support the development of coordination and audio, visual and tactile skills among all children, and in particular, children with a disability.
