Product Information
This book examines how quality and good practice in early childhood education and care is interpreted and implemented in a variety of settings and circumstances, globally as well as nationally. Drawing on a lifetime of practice in a variety of roles and in particular using her experience of research and policy making in a wide variety of countries, the author discusses issues of quality and practice in early education and care: / What kind of behaviours, attitudes and assumptions go to make up good practice in early education and care? / What kind of societal values do they draw upon? / How can good practice be shaped and influenced? / What kind enabling conditions are necessary for good practice to emerge? / What are its outcomes? / Are there widely accepted good practices which cross local and national boundaries or are such definitions irredeemably local?Product Identifiers
