Commenting is Jo Pilcher, publication and event manager for Progressive Preschool
“We really have been blown away with the quality and volume of entries we had this year for the PPS Awards; it has been exceptional. While there are undeniable issues facing the overall business due to the cost of living crisis, the preschool sector is nothing if not resourceful and resilient. We cannot wait to come together on 15 November to celebrate everything the industry has achieved and have a huge ‘preschool’ party.”
