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.
