A Child Centred EYFS cover

As EY practitioners, we know that child-centred practice is what matters. Despite the pressures for more ′school like′ learning in the Early Years, EY professionals and practitioners continue to advocate for child-led best practice in settings.
This book is a toolkit for all those working with children on how to develop and implement a child centred curriculum for delivery of the EYFS. A curriculum that is research informed and based on what we know about children′s development and learning. A curriculum that ensures children have the time and space to explore and develop the fundamental building blocks of early development.

This book is relevant to our course especially as it covers most topics studied by our final year students. -- Dr Ruth Joy Wills * drupal *
This book is an invaluable resource for Early Years practitioners, undergraduates and professionals, committed to child-centred practice. Grounded in theories, research and aligned with the EYFS frameworks, it offers practical guidance for creating social, emotional and physical environments that nurture exploration and build essential foundations for early development. Clear, accessible, and deeply informed, it balances theory with actionable strategies, empowering professionals to reflect on and deliver a curriculum that honors the principles of child-led learning. A must-read for fostering meaningful, developmentally appropriate practice. -- Miss Helen Young * drupal *
An excellent book for our first year EYS trainees, sharing research, provocations and case studies, and posing questions for discussion around the importance of child centred practice in the EYFS. Easy to read chapters and not too long and daunting! -- Mrs Helen Dunn * drupal *
