Early Childhood Education Management - Mary Moloney - Bog

The Early Childhood Education sector is constantly changing through the unprecedented demand for ECE services globally, accelerated social change, and the introduction of pedagogical and regulatory practices. Based upon empirical inquiry, this book challenges the assumption that an early childhood manager does not require specialist knowledge, skill or disposition. Using case studies to bridge the gap between theory and practice, the authors address core issues at the heart of the management role, including the relationship between early childhood policy and broader legislative enactments, as well as issues related to challenges and the development of management skills.
