Items related to Starting School
This book traces the experiences of children from a poor inner-urban neighbourhood - half of them from Bangladeshi families - as they acquire the knowledge appropriate to their home culture and then take this knowledge to their reception class. It highlights the small differences in family life - in parenting practices, in perspectives on childhood, and in beliefs about work and play - which make a big difference to children's adaptations to school.

Liz Brooker taught for twenty years in Inner London schools, before undertaking the study described in this book. She now teaches and researches at the Institute of Education in London, in the areas of Early Childhood Education, and family involvement in their children's development and learning.
Review:
"...a balanced, finely observed and elegantly written book. Liz Broker challenges us to move towards a jointly owned culture in the classroom and school through working with families and communities and not only with the children." - Eve Bearne
