Opportunity Area funded ‘50 Things To Do’ initiative

The Opportunity Area Partnership Board has approved investment 20k from Y4 funding and 20k from Y5 for delivery of the 50 Things to Do initiative to boost children’s early learning by increasing the diversity of children’s experiences at home through a universal and targeted place-based approach. This is to address the significant loss of learning experienced by children during lockdown as evidenced through national research and local research, namely the Reception Baseline data submitted by Oldham schools in the autumn term and the Home Start survey of Oldham parents and carers.
