Child Development for Teachers in Southern Africa

This book is about the psychological development of children and their interaction with the school environment. We believe that knowledge in this regard is essential to understand the learner, not only from an academic but also from a psycho-educational perspective.

The influence of a teacher on the development of a child cannot be understated. However, this influence stretches much further than only academic education it includes the holistic development of a child. As this role of a teacher becomes more necessary in present times, it is essential that teachers are also trained in this regard.

This textbook was written for a psycho-educational approach to assist teachers to better understand their learners and their behaviour.
