The study explored the concept of school culture and how it affects learning environments in schools.

These values not only influence our understanding of the factors but also determine how we deal with the constant shaping and re-shaping of processes of culture.

'School readiness' is at the forefront of current Early Childhood Educational policy and is seen politically as a way of narrowing the attainment gap and breaking the cycle of poverty, and preparing children for the formal learning of Year One. However, there is no clear definition of what 'school readiness' means for teachers and children. Without this in place the phrase is left open to interpretation and contradictions, resulting in key divisions between policymakers and the Early Childhood community as to what being 'school ready' means.
