Exciting news!
From the middle of July, you will start to see EMTAS being replaced with EDEAS.
EDEAS will officially become our new teams title from September. EDEAS stands for Ethnically Diverse Education Achievement Service.
So why the change?
We are conscious that the phrase Ethnic minority in our title is often and unhelpful way of identifying ethnically diverse children. We also understand that Travellers are an ethnically diverse group and our aim with our new title is to be more inclusive and outline our role.
In September we will do an official launch, including sharing exciting updates about our offer to schools and EYF settings.
