This textbook has been developed and written in response to the
huge changes in the Early Years sector. It will encourage students
to go beyond the basics, to explore and research issues in more
depth, and to take a critical and reflective approach to their
practice. The book takes full account of the curriculum framework
and the Foundation Stage for early years; it also acknowledges the
National Literacy Strategy and the National Numeracy Strategy.
Exploring Issues in Early Years Education and Care enables readers
to go beyond a basic, introductory level and introduces the key
issues in early childhood education and care such as researching
young children; the place of work in early childhood; reducing
inequalities in child health; and comparative perspectives in early
childhood literacy. Although rooted firmly in practice and with a
UK focus, the text introduces controversial issues and takes a look
beyond the UK. This book comes from the team that wrote the
best-selling Looking at Early Years Education and Care. The
contributors' wide range of backgrounds in early years health and
education ensures that the text will meet the needs of students and
tutors on many different early years and early primary courses, as
well as reflective practitioners working in a range of Early Years
settings.
