Valued Children, Informed Teaching

Taking questions such as "How can we recognize diversity?", this text explores key aspects of the learning environment for both teachers and children. A particular feature is the holistic approach to equality issues with an emphasis on diversity in all its forms. This book also explores the possessions that children or teachers may want to hide away from the view of others. It should encourage teachers to value languages, cultures, beliefs, opinions and skills, and acknowledge that these contribute to the creation of an effective climate for learning.
