THE TOPIC |
|
From the Montessori Method to the Waldorf-Steiner method, from the Reggio Emilia Approach to Outdoor and Non Formal Education, the world of preschool education is in constant development. Early childhood education lays the groundwork for success in school and in adult years, for this reason it is crucial for preschool teachers to keep up with the new trends and stay on top of what's current.
During this conference, educators and other education staff will have the opportunity to share best practices and experiences with their pupils and learn more about the principles and practices of common and novel preschool approaches in other European countries.
