Child Development for Early Years Students and Practitioners by Sally Neaum
This accessible core text to child development is for students of degrees and foundation degrees in Early Years, Early Childhood Studies and related disciplines and for early years practitioners. It introduces the context of child development, how we can develop an understanding of this development and how early years practitioners can support this in practice. This new Third Edition has been updated throughout and brought into line with current policy. It references the 2014 Special Educational Needs Code of Practice and the new Early Years Teacher status. Other updates to this edition include: a new chapter on critiquing the assessment of school readiness - increasingly a topical theme in the Early Years new information and discussion of the differences between the EYFS and the first Key Stage of the National Curriculum new case studies and enhanced interactive activities.
The third edition brings it in line with current policy..[and] there are numerous case studies throughout the chapters, which help illustrate points made. This will prove to be a useful book for those wanting to hone up on their child development knowledge, for those starting out in their early years career, and for those undertaking professional development. -- Neil Henty
