Transitions in the early years: A learning opportunity
This edition of Early Childhood Matters is on ‘transitions’: the physical, social and developmental threshholds that children cross from their home environment into their first experiences of life outside – daycare, pre-school and school. “Successful transitions: the continuum from home to school” is one of the Van Leer Foundation’s three new programme areas, launched earlier this year. The goals of our interventions in this area include the enhancement of the quality of children’s learning environments and a better availability of and demand for early education.
