Description
Early Childhood Matters: Groundbreaking Insights into Early Years Education and Care. The Effective Pre-school and Primary Education (EPPE) project is one of the largest European studies on the impact of early years education and care on children's developmental outcomes. This book documents the rapid development of early years education and care from the late 1990s, providing new evidence on the importance of pre-school and its influence on children's cognitive, social, and behavioural development. The findings of this project offer valuable insights into how home learning environments interact with pre-school and primary school experiences to shape children's progress. The book provides essential reading for those interested in policy development, early years education and care, and innovative research methodology. It also offers new evidence on good practice in early years settings, making it a useful resource for students and professionals in the field.
