What Matters to Children is a book which underpins a whole approach to identifying the principles that form the basis of effective teaching and learning in the early years and beyond.
Written by luminaries including Diane Rich and Mary Jane Drummond, it is the starting point for a programme of conferences and workshops, organised by Rich Learning Opportunities.
Rachel Myer, head of Thongsley Primary and Nursery School, in Huntingdon, who was involved in piloting materials for the book says, 'This isn't an add-on to practice, but a way of being. The approach filters up from the nursery and has become embedded in the whole school. It's about personalised learning and what matters to the child.'
