Updated to reflect the important changes in the EYLF V2.0, this third edition of Principles and Practices for Driving the EYLF addresses each of the eight Principles and clearly explains each Principle and its key features. It also explores the seven Practices and explains what each Practice involves, why it is important, and how it can be implemented. Every chapter concludes with questions for reflection to stimulate discussion with colleagues or self-reflection.
With this title, you will be well-placed as an educator to reflect on and improve your curriculum and pedagogy. In addition, the resource is a source of support that you and your colleagues and committee of management can draw on to address the National Quality Standard and to prepare your Quality Improvement Plans.
