Early education and care has become a central policy area in many
countries. As services expand rapidly, it is crucial to examine
whether children from disadvantaged backgrounds receive provision
of the highest possible quality. In this original, topical book,
leading experts from eight countries examine how early education
and care is organised, funded and regulated in their countries.
Bringing together recent statistical evidence, the book gives an
up-to-date picture of access to services by different groups,
providing rich insights on how policies play out in practice, and
the extent to which they help or hinder disadvantaged children to
receive high quality provision. An equal start? reveals the common
tensions and complexities countries face in ensuring that early
education and care is affordable, accessible and of high quality.
Its critical examination of the potential for better policies
ensures that An equal start? will be of interest to academic
readers as well as policy makers and practitioners.
