A striking picture of how powerful values and local authority commitment have driven delivery of early childhood services in a small north Italian community.

San Miniato’s approach to the early years stands out because of:

Its strong belief that very young children are highly competent individuals
The high value given to family participation
The striking impact of the above on day-to-day practice in early years settings.

This DVD and book set provide a unique and fascinating insight into day-to-day practice in early years settings in the Tuscan town of San Miniato, where powerful values such as a belief in the competence of the child and the centrality of family participation drive every aspect of service delivery for the under threes.
