Early Education, internationally, is the focus of much challenge
and debate. Various approaches to teaching young children are being
developed and advocated, but the focus is often on curriculum
content with the processes of learning as a secondary issue. The
most important consideration in early education is the way in which
young children learn. Their transferable skills of communication,
collaboration and investigation can underpin all aspects of
learning. These elements form the main focus of work in a group of
pre-schools in an area of Northern Italy which has earned an
international reputation for innovative practice and pedagogy.
The experience of Reggio Emilia, in providing challenges to
accepted approaches to early childhood education in many countries,
is widely acknowledged. Since 1963, when the Italian municipality
of Reggio Emilia began setting up its network of educational
services for 0-6 year olds, the 'Reggio Approach' has gained
worldwide recognition. Numerous visitors have been impressed by the
acknowledgement given to the potential of children, the
organisation and quality of the environments created, the promotion
of collegiality and a climate of co-participation of families in
the educational project.
This book reflects the impressions and experiences of the Reggio
Emilia approach gained by a range of early childhood educators
following a study visit to the region. It focusses on key issues
such as staffing, training, working with parents, play, learning,
the culture of early childhood, and special educational needs, from
a variety of perspectives and will provide a welcome challenge to
thinking for both practitioners and policy makers.
