Recenzii

This book provides an invaluable study into the role of mentoring and coaching within an early years context. Part One explores the differences between mentoring and coaching, and the theory behind this. Part Two offers a range of national and international case studies which enable the reader to consider this within a practical context. An excellent addition to the area of early childhood education.
This assemblage of chapters from diverse international contexts provides multiple opening points to consider how theory and research might work together in practice in the arena of coaching and mentoring. Work undertaken in the early years is recognized as deeply complex, deserving of ongoing professional development focused on transformative practice.
This is a timely publication. For those working with young children, the workplace has become increasingly fraught and complex, with support needed to maintain a professional outlook and joy in their chosen profession. Providing an introduction to coaching and mentoring in the early childhood sector, this collection of case studies invites readers to consider possibilities for their own situations. Speaking from a range of countries and perspectives, chapter authors offer diverse perspectives on this important component of professional development. With a focus on respectful relationships and active listening, a range of issues and approaches are considered. Accessible and interesting, this publication has the potential to both inform and inspire. It should be a valuable addition to any professional library.
