Quality Care

Synopsis
Theorists and practitioners in Vancouver, Canaca, consider the arguments for collective support for young children - whether they have two parents or a single parent. Two themes underlie the programme - economic pressures and social-psychological provision for children’s development. Examines issues of quality in day care - in nurseries or by nannies and childminders. With many children in day care by necessity, providing quality care is a key way of supporting the family in its education role in the child’s early years.

Notes
NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
