It was never meant to be like this. Some of the leading figures in early education reveal how a tracking culture grew that did more harm than good - and we ask whether now is the time to get out.
In this full twenty minute documentary, we take a look back across the history of child development in the UK and how things have gradually transitioned to the tracking culture we have today.
We hear insights from:
- Nancy Stewart, Former Project Lead, Birth-to-Five Matters | Author, Development Matters 2012
- Dr Julian Grenier, Author of the new Development Matters
- Dr Sue Allingham, Early Years Consultant
- Ruth Pimentel, CEO, Kindred Nurseries
- Phil Minns, Ofsted's Specialist Adviser for Early Years and Primary Education
- Wendy Ratcliff, Ofsted Inspector

Here at Famly we make better nursery management software. Working in close partnership with almost 1,500 childcare providers worldwide, we help streamline the tedious admin and paperwork that comes with running a busy childcare setting.
The last thing managers and staff need is software that is old-fashioned, difficult to understand, and slow. That's why we continually focus on building a system that is fast and easy-to-use, but still packed with all the features you need to save you time - and get back to what's most important - the children.
