This work sets out to explore some of the wider issues that need to be considered when working with primary-age children and how these can be woven into the broad framework of teaching and the teacher's own learning. Examples of classroom practice help to illustrate the different aspects of teaching: what it is to be an effective and competent teacher; classroom processes such as planning, observation and asessment; the variety of ways in which children learn and develop thinking and skills; social interactions and support networks; equal opportunities; and "in loco parentis" responsibilities.
