How to Use Work Group Supervision to Improve Early Years Practice presents a new model for supervision as a collaborative process, and explores how this process can benefit practitioners at all stages in their career to reflect on and improve their own practice. Supported by detailed case studies which contextualise Work Group Supervision, Louis offers practical support which will help practitioners develop their knowledge and skills, and to work together to develop a shared understanding and more successful practice.

Louis covers a range of insightful topics to help practitioners utilise the Work Group Supervision method to improve their practice, including:

- What Work Group Supervision is and how it can help practitioners

- How to develop self-understanding and professional practice

- Theories on child observation, and using observation to tune into children

- The importance of respectful interactions as a leader and among peers

How to Use Work Group Supervision to Improve Early Years Practice is ideal for Early Years practitioners and teachers, managers of Early Years settings and students on courses for leadership in Early Childhood settings.
