A concluding noteReviews'Schools are amongst the most significant contexts in which children develop, and children's prior development influences how they respond to schools. The over-arching aim of The Child at School is to underline this inter-dependency and to challenge the widespread belief that education and development can be treated separately. It succeeds triumphantly, providing a compendium of up-to-date research on topics as varied as play, bullying, gender, ability grouping, class size. No comparable volume comes close to matching in breadth of vision.' - Christine Howe, Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge, UK Schools are amongst the most significant contexts in which children develop, and children s prior development influences how they respond to schools.
