is delighted to invite you to a seminar

“The Power of Preschool”
by
Professor Iram Siraj-Blatchford,
Institute of Education, London

Friday 8th April 2011, Room G6, School of Social Sciences & Law,
DIT – 40/45 Mountjoy Square, Dublin 1

This seminar is the latest in a series of seminars organised by the CSER, addressing issues of early childhood policy and practice. The seminar draws upon research studies conducted in Ireland, Wales and England to present a rich and deep context for considering the powerful role of preschool in the lives of young children. This focus is of particular interest in light of the recent introduction of the universal free preschool year in Ireland.

The CSER seminar series aims to provide a platform to generate debate, reflect on key issues and advance collaboration amongst academics, practitioners, researchers and policy makers in the field of ECCE. Your contribution to this series is most welcome and we look forward to seeing you there.
