The development of spoken language underpins all seven areas of learning and development in the EYFS. This book supports those studying the Early Years and Early Childhood to explore the wide range of issues and factors that impact on children’s communication and language development. In all chapters, students are supported to consider real life issues. A diverse range of case studies for learning highlight good practice and key challenges. Throughout, a practice-based focus supports EY students to link key theory with practice in settings.
Julie Kent is Senior Lecturer on the BA (Hons) Childhood degree programmes and strand leader on the new Education and Early Childhood MA programme at Nottingham Trent University. Julie initially qualified and practised as a Speech and Language Therapist in the NHS for 15 years, working with children in school and community settings. Tanya Richardson owns and manages a 56-place nursery and out-of-school club and has done so for the last 7 years. Prior to establishing the business, she had no qualifications in the field of early childhood (she was a financial consultant in a previous incarnation) but just knew that she wanted to make a difference to young children′s lives. In 2008, she embarked on a foundation degree, with the University of Northampton, and has not stopped studying since! She is currently putting the finishing touches to her master′s degree and enjoying every minute. Research has become an integral aspect of her working life, and she now has the confidence to stand up for her beliefs, backed up by theory. She now has the underpinning knowledge to explain the rationale behind any decisions made and as such has just secured an ‘outstanding’ outcome on a recent Ofsted inspection. She has recently begun to work, part time, for the University of Northampton as an Associate Lecturer in Early Childhood Studies, and she is privileged to be able to share her knowledge and passion with others.
