The four nations of the UK each have distinctive policy and
curricula in relation to Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC).
This new textbook offers a comprehensive look at early years
education in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales,
bringing the curriculum frameworks for each country together in one
place. Drawing on the cultural and practical pedagogy of each
curriculum, this book aims to develop students' understanding of
the development, care, education, health, well-being and upbringing
of young children across the UK in a social, pedagogical and policy
context. Divided into two sections, the first examines each
country's learning and teaching requirements in detail within a
policy context. The book then explores the similarities and
differences between the curricula, focusing on key areas such as
play, the indoor and outdoor learning environment, the family and
assessment. Accessible and engaging, this book will help students
to analyse and question practice both in their own country and
across all four Home Nations. Features include: case studies to
illustrate practice and a frequently asked questions section in
each chapter to clarify key points and opportunities for reflection
and debate. Including contributions from expert practitioners in
each country, this text is essential reading for all students
studying early childhood and will help them to understand the
impact of policy on children and families across the UK.
