Отрывок из книги
June's book is an incisive look at the impact of policy on practice across a range of subjects within the early years. An accessible book that is lively and engaging but also reflects a deep understanding that comes from her experience and knowledge.

Getting the funding right is critical to ensuring apprentices are trained by well-qualified and capable staff who are able to deliver the best education to all children.
