Gender Diversity and Inclusion in Early Years Education

Beschreibung

This book introduces practitioners to key aspects of gender inclusivity and explores how they relate to their early years practice. Considering the implications of gender in the context of supporting children, families and practitioners it examines the theoretical contexts that surround gender identity and current legislation to provide practitioners with all the information they need to develop their practice in an open and equal way. Including case studies and reflective questions which link to the EYFS and provide a wealth of practical guidance, this book will be valuable reading for all early years practitioners and students that want to promote an inclusive environment for the children in their care, their families and colleagues.

Rezensionen

"I have read many books and articles on how boys and girls develop in the early years. However, Gender Diversity and Inclusion in Early Years Education stands out. What I really appreciated about the book was that the format supports a very practical approach to the process of personal and professional reflection and continual improvement. [...]This book is ideal for anyone with an interest in issues relating to equality and diversity, and would make a useful tool to support reflection for managers and leaders. It would also provide an invaluable link between theory and practice for those undertaking early years qualifications." Gill Medhurst, Schools Week
