About Early Advantage (UK)

Thank you for visiting Early Advantage! As an independent publishing company, we are pleased to deliver the highest quality educational programmes, such as MUZZY: the BBC Language Course for Children, to families in the UK and around the world.

Always looking for new and exciting ways to help children learn, we cover the globe to find or create the best learning programmes for young children. We seek programmes that take advantage of the natural ability of all children to absorb new information and learn at astonishing rates during what research has shown to be the "window of opportunity" years from birth to age 12.

With Early Advantage programmes, we help parents realise their goal of bringing their children the benefit of rich educational experiences in childhood. Recent scientific studies continue to support and expand upon the strong body of research showing the lifetime advantages of learning during this period.

Early Advantage is itself growing by leaps and bounds, as it looks to answer some of the educational needs of families with young children and seeks to find new and exciting ways to help children learn! Both at school and at home, millions of children worldwide received an early start on a second language with MUZZY, created by the British Broadcasting Corporation. Impressed and impassioned by MUZZY's success with his own daughter, David Ward founded Early Advantage to bring the lifelong advantages of MUZZY and other exciting learning programmes to more children around the world.

The BBC's reputation as a teacher of languages is unparalleled, and their reach is substantial. Its most famous language programme Follow Me, (also known as BBC English), continues to be the most popular language course for adults ever created. Similarly, MUZZY is the most popular language learning programme ever created for children. MUZZY has been used in national curriculum (for example, in Canada and France), in progressive public and private schools from Thailand to Turkey and in homes from the U.S. and U.K. to Mexico and China.
