Strong Foundations
Description
Chapter 2 showcases the largest longitudinal ECEC research study to have ever been conducted in Australia, the E4-Kids study. Readers will better understand the value and drawbacks of large-scale research with respect to their work with children. The findings from this study indicate that there is still much to embrace if ECEC in Australia is to support all families and children to their full potential.
