Research and Reflective Practice in Early Childhood Settings

In the AAQ BTEC National in Early Childhood Development, the phrase Research and Reflective Practice in an Early Childhood Setting refers to how research and reflection are used to improve practice in children’s care and education (0–8 years).

It involves reviewing sector research, understanding how findings shape legislation and practice, and applying reflective models to develop professional skills and link theory to practice.
