“Early Childhood Care and Education”

The UNESCO is leading the way for policy making in international early childhood care and education systems.  There purpose is to create holistic development in children in different countries. In Zambia the Ministry of Education incorporated the ECCDE into its national development plan especially in rural areas.  The amount of children receiving education is increasing but after the age of 4.  Programs for those under the age of 3 are not attended by many.  The amount of trained teachers for programs has increased significantly.

  1. It is wonderful that the amount of trained teachers have increased. I am however saddened by the fact that there are few to no programs for children under age 4.

  2. How important do you think it is for children under the age of 3 to participate in Early Childhood programs?
