Series: Routledge Library Editions: Early Years

Originally published in 1938, there were indications that the progress of nursery education in England would proceed rapidly in the next few years. The English Nursery School was written in response to the need, from people with a duty or interest in the area, for a single volume bringing together information relating to the growth, organization and function of the nursery school and nursery class as an integral part of our educational system. The author’s interest in the nursery school movement was developed by her personal association with pioneers such as Margaret McMillan and Grace Owen who were still involved with shaping the course of future developments in the field, which can still be felt today. This reissue shows where it all began.
