by SandraSmidt (Author)
Important changes in Early Years policy have been made since the first edition of Sandra Smidt's book was published in 1998. With the British government's commitment to funding nursery education for all four-year-olds, those working in this field must develop their knowledge of child development and theories of learning. This volume highlights initiatives such as the replacement of Desirable Outcomes by the Foundation Stage and Early Learning Goals. This second edition is particularly appropriate for those implementing the government's new Sure Start programmes. As with the first edition, this book may be used as a "core" text for students and teachers alike involved in any area of Early Years teaching.
