Early Years Update

′This text is a ′must buy′ for anyone interested in inclusive education in the early years… A particular strength of the book is the way in which the everyday experiences of children, parents and practitioners are discussed in relation to educational theory… Perhaps the greatest strength of the book though, lies in the way that ideas are based on research findings are presented so clearly. It will almost certainly be nominated for this year′s NASEN/TES academic book award and deservedly so′ - SENCO Update

′Refreshingly, in this book, inclusion is not about a narrow group of students defined as ′special′ but about increasing the participation of everybody involved in early years settings. It is about reducing the exclusion of all children, their families and communities. It is also about the practitioners who work with them, whose involvement in decisions in their own workplace is critical if they are to support the participation of children. It is rich with experience, from the UK and internationally, building up an understanding of education from stories of encounters with children and their families. This book will help readers to escape from the confines of considering children, and the difficulties they encounter, through the constricting and distorting lens of special educational needs′ - Tony Booth, Professor of Inclusive and International Education Canterbury Christ Church University

′Fascinating reading ... bound to inform discussions and encourage early years practicioners to develop and reflect on their own practices ... I will be recommending this book to colleagues and adding it to my essential reading list for students′ - Nursery World

′Well-written and accessible... The book is rich with the reported experiences and ideas of educators and provides clear pointers for further research and discussion. It will serve as an excellent stimulus for educators in any early-years setting who are seeking to develop their own agreed philosophy and inclusive practices′ - Support For Learning
