Little Minds - Project Outline

An overview of the research project

Little Minds: This groundbreaking research project will embed mindful pedagogies in early years settings to support children’s executive functioning skills and improve their speech, language, and communication.

Adopting a realist methodology and working with practitioners in their own settings, Little Minds will develop a deep understanding of “what works for whom, under what circumstances, and why” to advance empowering educational practices which are flexible enough to adapt to a range of children, with differing needs, in a diverse array of early years settings.

Project update - July 2024

The project team were delighted to share news of how the research is progressing at the International UKLA conference in Brighton. Here are the slides from the presentation.
