Title: | Strong foundations, successful futures | Contributor(s): | Sims, Margaret (author) | Publication Date: | 2014 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/16135 | Abstract: | What does the research tell us about the benefits to children under three of attending an early childhood program? Many of us are familiar with the research demonstrating the benefits to preschool-aged children of attending a good-quality early childhood program. The idea of education for preschool children is well established and accepted. Studies such as the Effective Provision of Pre-School Education (EPPE) in the UK (Sylva, Melhuish, Sammons, Siraj-Blatchford & Taggart, 2010), and Perry HighScope (Schweinhart et al., 2005) and Head Start in the USA (McWayne, Hahs-Vaughn, Cheung & Green Wright, 2012) show that the benefits across all areas of development and well-being are significant and long lasting. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Every Child, 20(4), p. 13-13 | Publisher: | Early Childhood Australia Inc | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1322-0659 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130102 Early Childhood Education (excl Maori) | Fields of Research (FoR) 2020: | 390302 Early childhood education | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 940105 Childrens/Youth Services and Childcare | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2020: | 230104 Children's services and childcare 230115 Youth services |
