Early Childhood Education and Care sits at the centre of some of the most urgent challenges of our time, from poverty and inequality to social cohesion. Yet too often, early education systems reproduce these inequalities rather than disrupt them. This book argues that it does not have to be this way.Drawing on international research, neuroscience and decades of practice, Dr June O’Sullivan OBE presents the social justice pedagogy she developed through the London Early Years Foundation (LEYF). At its heart is a simple but powerful idea: fairness must be designed into systems, relationships and everyday practice, and judged by how far it expands children’s life chances.Covering leadership, quality, children’s rights, pedagogy and the art, craft and science of Early Years teaching, the book sets out a vision for community-based, multi-generational education rooted in inclusion, equity and compassion. Through case studies, reflective questions and the seven interwoven strands of the LEYF approach, the chapters show how values can be translated into everyday practice including:• Leadership for Excellence, weaving sustainability throughout• Spiral Curriculum• Enabling Environments• Harmonious Relationships• Safe, Fit and Healthy• Home Learning Engagement• Multi-Generational Community ApproachOffering a practical framework for designing early education systems that can be adapted, replicated and scaled to better serve disadvantaged children, families and communities, this is essential reading for educators, leaders and policymakers.

In line with government initiatives, there is growing pressure within the early years sector to create staff who can lead different types of childcare and family settings in order to address two main government targets. Firstly, reducing poverty among families with small children and secondly, increasing educational opportunities for children from disadvantaged backgrounds in order to give them a better start in life. Many say that for this to happen we need people who can lead an effective team of capable, professional colleagues. This is no easy task in the modern Early Years market. June O'Sullivan, Chief Executive of LEYF, acknowledges the problems and provides ideas and suggestions to address the issues facing leaders so that they are supported to lead us into a future where we can all help make a big difference for a long time.
