Reviews

"""MOVERS is a great leap forward in consolidating and organising some of the cutting-edge techniques and insights that are…important in helping children grow to their potential. This scale, based on the work of Carol Archer and Iram Siraj over many years of solid research, study and observation, will be deeply useful and critical for educators, and all who care for young children."" Bette Lamont, Director at Developmental Movement Consultants, Seattle, Washington, United States. ""An excellent tool for assessing quality in the support of young children’s physical well-being. It is scholarly, practical and helpful; I recommend it highly."" Dr Sandra Mathers, Department of Education, University of Oxford, UK. ""I have been searching for several years, an instrument to measure the quality of the environment in these areas in early childhood education and care settings… I believe such an instrument now exists."" Professor Anthony Okely, Director of Research, Early Start, University of Wollongong, Australia"
