Effective Leadership in the Early Years Sector

The ELEYS Study

By: Iram Siraj-Blatchford,Iram Siraj,Laura Manni

This publication takes as its background the radical reforms to services for children following the passing, in England, of The Children Act of 2004 and subsequent Government white paper, Every Child Matters: Change for Children. It argues that the fundamental requirements for leadership for learning in the early years should be provided by considering social contexts, adopting a commitment to collective working, and focusing on improving children's learning outcomes. It is based on the analysis of a wide range of literature on leadership in the early years and information taken from effective early years settings.

The Early Years

Laying the Foundations for Racial Equality

By: Iram Siraj-Blatchford

Noting that racism is inherent--often in hidden ways--in all aspects of British society and is damaging to all children, this book provides thoughtful and practical support for early childhood workers to help children develop a sense of self-worth and to ensure equality of opportunity for all children. The book identifies the many ways in which young children experience racism; discusses good practice in language development, curriculum development, and working with parents; and identifies the importance of policies that are implemented, and of training and resources to take these policies forward. Sections 1 and 2 of the book are informative and intended to build confidence and understanding of what racism is and how to deal with it positively through day-to-day practice with children. Section 3 is concerned with understanding the British national initiatives that support or hinder equality. The final chapter is a practical discussion of training and should be read in conjunction with the first two sections. The individual chapter titles are: (1) "Young Children and Racial Difference"; (2) "Understanding Racial Inequality"; (3) "Language, Learning and Multilingual Development"; (4) "Creating a Curriculum and Ethos for Racial Equality"; (5) "Parental Involvement: Fostering Confidence and Communication"; (6) "Antiracism: Policy Developments in the Early Years"; (7) "The State in Three Acts" (on institutional racism and reform legislation); and (8) "Training and Resources: The Way Forward." The book concludes with a listing of useful sources and resources for racial equality. Contains 127 references. (HTH)

Assessing Quality in the Early Years

Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale : Extension (ECERS-E), Four Curricular Subscales

By: Kathy Sylva,Iram Siraj-Blatchford,Brenda Taggart

The Early Childhood Environmental Rating Scale - Extension (ECERS-E) has been developed by Kathy Sylva, Iram Sraj-Batchford and Brenda Taggart as an instrument to measure quality in literacy, numeracy, science and diversity, as observable in pre-school settings. The scales are in accord with the United Kingdom1s Foundation Stage Curriculum. ECERS-E complements the Early Childhood Environmental Rating Scales-Revised (ECERS-R), an internationally recognised measure of quality in education and care. Although originally devised as a research tool, the scales have been used by early years practitioners during self audits to determine quality of provision. This practical handbook will be of interest to all those concerned with providing a quality environment in which young children1s learning can flourish.

Ecers-E: The Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale Curricular Extension to Ecers-R

By: Kathy Sylva,Sylva Kathy Taggart Brenda Siraj-Blatchford Iram,Iram Siraj-Blatchford,Brenda Taggart

This is the third edition of the "ECERS-E", formerly called "Assessing Quality in the Early Years: Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale" ("ECERS-E"). The ECERS-E is an instrument for measuring quality in literacy, numeracy, science and diversity as observable in pre-school in relation to child cognitive and social/behavioural developmental outcomes for children age 3-5. This new update of the 2003 publication has more extensive notes, derived from feedback from extensive use of the instrument by practitioners in hundreds of settings and from local authority early years specialists. The ECERS-E complements the Early Childhood Rating Scales-Revised (ECERS-R), an internationally recognised measure of quality in education and care. Originally devised as a research tool, the scales are used increasingly by Local Authorities during audits to determine and improve the quality of provision, and by practitioners seeking to improve their practice through professional development. This practical handbook offers detailed guidance on providing a quality environment in which young children and their learning can flourish. Kathy Sylva is Professor of Educational Psychology at University of Oxford. She has researched extensively in the education and care of young children. Iram Siraj-Blatchford is Professor of Early Childhood at the Institute of Education, University of London. Her research interests include early childhood curriculum and pedagogy. She has published widely on issues of Early Childhood quality and equality. Brenda Taggart is the Research Co-ordinator of the Effective Pre-school, Primary and Secondary Education (EPPSE) project at the Institute of Education, University of London. Her background is in primary education and research.
