"We all share the goal of creating a more powerful learning environment, and this book provides the essential tools to achieve it. POMS is an indispensable resource for early years practitioners because we are all committed to ensuring the best possible outcomes for the children in our care. It's a must-have for your professional library." - Sarah Watkins, Lecturer, Author and Early Years Specialist"This updated version of the wellbeing and involvement tool is so useful. We know that supporting children’s wellbeing needs to underpin all our work, but sometimes it can be hard to measure and work out what is going on and how we can support the child. I have been eagerly waiting for this updated tool and will be using it throughout my work; it is such a valuable resource." - Sonia Mainstone-Cotton, Nurture Consultant and Author"The POMS helps us to focus in on each child, gives us clear guidance about what to look for in our observations as well as practical advice about how to carry out these observations. Each section includes helpful case studies which bring the levels of wellbeing and involvement to life. The 10 action points are unpicked in more detail to help the reader move from merely observing children to sustainable changes in practice. The developmental domains fit comfortably with the EYFS and encourage us to think about each child developmentally as well as individual starting points. If you want to dive in to the Leuven Scales more deeply, I highly recommend this book to you." - Tamsin Grimmer, Early Years Consultant and Author
