There is a profound wisdom in this document in its approach to learning and young children. It is the base of all learning - Wellbeing, Belonging, Contribution, Communication and Exploration - we all need these - we do not grow out of childhood, we grow up from it, upon the base of what we learn in the Early Years. All people need these fundamental needs provided, on which to build their learning.
