′I recommend John Darling′s book to everyone interested in education today′ - Times Educational Supplement, Scotland

′It represents an important contribution to the study of curriculum at a time when that study is being seriously eroded, and is especially to be welcomed because that contribution seeks to keep alive the progressive alternative′ - Early Years

′The book has much to offerIt is written with clarity and style, and in a language that is immediately accessible′ - Education Today and Tomorrow

Child-Centred Education is undoubtedly a well-researched and equally well-written book in addition to affording a rich source of references′ - British Journal of Educational Studies
