    Brief

    This opportunity involves providing specialist support services to local authorities across England to increase uptake of the Early Learning for Two-Year-Olds (EL2) entitlement among disadvantaged families. The role requires expertise in early years delivery, family engagement, and removing barriers to access.

Suppliers should have experience working with local government, early years settings, and vulnerable families.
