It is based on his own and colleagues experiences as practitioners working in schools and children's centres and as advisory teachers/consultants, working with a variety of settings including schools, private day nurseries and children's centres.
Having worked with hundreds of practitioners, Terry Gould
realised that for many, the last 10 years
have been, and continue to be, a time of uncertainty. In listening to these practitioners requesting
‘one book' to help them with the key aspects
of their role he wrote this book in the hope that it would go someway
to providing much needed support.
