This book explores the philosophy and practice of the Pen Green centre, and explains the vital and rewarding journey that staff, parents, families and the community have made. The contributors to this wide-ranging and insightful book
expore the evolution of Pen Green’s celebrated ‘Learning to be Strong’ programme, an assertiveness training programme for young children, that has been sustained over twenty-five years
outline how the rich nursery curriculum has developed
show how the work using schematic theory to understand children’s cognitive and emotional concerns has been documented and has become central to Pen Green’s pedagogical approach.
The book concludes with a chapter on the challenges for children’s centres in the twenty-first century and explores how we can develop sustainable, responsive, accessible services which work, in that they transform children’s life chances.
