The Department for International Trade (DfIT) has highlighted the early years as a potential source of international trade as part of a wider plan to increase income from education.

 

The DfIT says that there has been a significant increase in the demand for early education globally. Figures from UNESCO suggest that between 1999 and 2012 the number of children enrolled in pre-primary education across the globe increased by nearly two-thirds.

 

The DfIT says that it will work with the early years sector in the UK to help providers export their offer and work with sector organisations, including the Early Years Alliance, to develop training and information sessions.

 

Neil Leitch, chief executive of the Alliance, said: 鈥淏ritain is rightly considered to deliver some of the best early years care and education in the world. Our best childcare provision focuses on learning through play and putting the child first 鈥� those are hugely powerful ideas and services that we鈥檙e able to export. 新澳门六合彩官网开奖 have already started taking up international opportunities and it鈥檚 fantastic to have the support of government in helping us realise the sector鈥檚 enormous potential elsewhere in the world.鈥�

 

Damian Hinds, education secretary, said: 鈥淎s we prepare to leave the EU it is more important than ever to reach out to our global partners and maximise the potential of our best assets 鈥� that includes our education offer and the international students this attracts.

 

"There is no limit to our potential and this strategy will help cement our status as a world-leader in education, while creating real benefits for the country and students across the globe.鈥�
