Early Years promises from the parties
 

Political parties have already begun to make promises as to what they plan to do about childcare and family leave it they form part of the next Government.

Throughout the GE16 campaign Start Strong will be looking closely at these promises. Once all the manifestos have been launched we will publish a full analysis of how they deal with early years policies, but for now you can keep up to date with our responses to recent announcements on our media page or by following us on Twitter or Facebook.

Making a Promise to Children
 

We're calling on all general election candidates to make an Early Years #GE16 Promise to Children.


The promise gets candidates to commit to making early years a priority if elected, by increasing investment to ensure affordable, accessible, quality early years services and by strengthening family leave.  

Once candidates have signed up for our promise we will add them to the list of signatories on earlyyears.ie - so please keep an eye on the website for regular updates.

The next Government, whoever it may be, needs to make early years a priority.”
