"This contemporary and relevant text explores, from multiple perspectives, the key challenges facing early years practitioners at a time of unprecedented change in education.

It systematically explores and offers insights into the many agencies including education, health and social care that work together to enable high quality early years practice to be developed.

By drawing on a range of professionals in the field, it challenges the reader to critically analyse the characteristics of effective early learning and to consider the key underpinning pedagogy that informs it.

It is accessible to a wide audience including students, researchers, teacher trainers and practitioners.

I would strongly recommend it as a set text on our Primary and Early Years PGCE course." Derval Carey-Jenkins, Principal Lecturer: PGCE Primary and Early Years Course Leader, University of Worcester, UK"This contemporary book focusing on the new Early Years Foundation Stage is an essential read for those studying and delivering early years curriculum and pedagogy.

The book draws on theory, research, policy and practice and ensures that the chapters have significance to all early years practitioners.

It challenges the reader to think reflectively about the EYFS and what is appropriate provision to support and develop young children's learning.

The book is effectively organised into four relevant parts and is a very accessible read, often exemplifying high quality provision through interesting research observations, case studies and scenarios."
