Professional Knowledge & Skills in the Early Years

Professional Knowledge & Skills in the Early Years

by VerityCampbell-Barr (Author)

Synopsis

This book celebrates the knowledge Early Years practitioners already have, the knowledge that they will develop in their practical and theoretical training and the knowledge that cannot be described, but is none-the-less important in guiding the daily work of the early years sector. Theoretical and practical knowledge are also brought together in this book while encouraging critical consideration of alternative forms of knowledge such as attitudes and beliefs. Providing international examples and theoretical discussions on the challenges and rewards of working in the early years, this book seeks to identify, recognise and celebrate how those who work in early years education deliver best practice when working with young children.
