This publication draws on her own extensive experience of practice which encompasses the importance of family and the wider community in children’s development. Inclusive family learning practice is highlighted as of great relevance and importance in the early year’s framework. Individual development and self-regulatory behaviour of the child is emphasised with a view to an holistic pedagogical approach to family learning and inclusion in the early years. A valuable resource and essential read for all those involved in supporting inclusive lifelong learning, starting with our youngest citizens."
