This book examines the philosophical and theoretical foundations of
early years practice, and supports practitioners as they reflect on
the collective and personal rationales which motivate and inform
their work with young children. Theoretical underpinnings are
explored from a variety of perspectives, and are translated into
effective strategies for application in a range of early years
settings. Featuring contributions from leading early years
professionals, The Philosophy and Practice of Outstanding Early
Years Provision draws on sound expertise to deepen the reader's
understanding of the concepts and ideas behind everyday practice.
The book is divided into four easily navigated sections which
explore key issues including the creation of enabling environments,
leadership in the early years, the opportunities and challenges
presented by diversity, and the value of creative approaches.
Recommended strategies are discussed in relation to emerging global
pressures and the needs of the contemporary child, inviting
practitioners to modify and enhance future behaviour and practice.
This will be essential reading for students and practitioners who
wish to improve current and future practice by gaining insight into
the philosophical foundations which underpin outstanding provision.
