Description
The Sustained Shared Thinking and Emotional Well-being (SSTEW) Scale Supporting Process Quality in Early Childhood is a practical tool for improving early education and care. It helps practitioners assess and enhance the quality of interactions between adults and children, promoting strong relationships, effective communication, and positive learning outcomes. By using the Quality Rating Scale (QRS), settings can identify areas for improvement and develop a systematic approach to self-assessment. This new edition includes updated information on the evidence-base for SSTEW and children's development, as well as new examples of practice and supplementary information. Online or face-to-face training is available to support practitioners in using the SSTEW Scale effectively. This resource is essential for those working in early childhood education and care, providing a framework for measuring and promoting practice that supports children's emotional well-being and learning.
