The development of services in early childhood education and care as well as the changing views on children and the roles and responsibilities of parents are considered in this book, which should provide insights for students on early childhood studies courses. The author traces the growth of early childhood services from developments in the 16th century to the present day, with some material sourced from Nursery World's archives. He concludes with a description of the change in policy on early years with the formation of the UK's coalition Government last year.
