To engage with academic literature and review what ‘quality’ is for babies and toddlers in ECEC

Aim

To engage with academic literature and review what ‘quality’ is for babies and toddlers in ECEC.

Evidence and Reflection

Read the TACTYC occasional paper:

Dalli, C. (2014) Quality for babies and toddlers in early years settings, Occasional Paper 4, TACTYC, available at:

http://tactyc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Occ-Paper-4-Prof-Carmen-Dalli.pdf

Consider the implications this has for your practice.

Extension

Consider how your work environment and any wider structures, such as funding streams, curriculum, and assessment requirements, for example, support high quality practice.
