Good Practice in Out of School Care Provision.
Munton, Anthony G.; Blackburn, Teresa; Barreau, Sofka
Early Child Development and Care, v172 n3 p223-30 Jun 2002
This review searched English-language journals from the United Kingdom and other countries to assess empirical evidence concerning good practice in the provision of out-of-school child care. Findings suggest that quality in out-of-school provision is linked to staff training, program structure, and appropriate adult-child ratios and group sizes. (Author/KB)
