Early Life and Education

Early years in a child’s life are critical for setting the stage for future learning. Parents educate their offspring about the world around them and help them gain basic motor skills such as walking, speaking and feeding themselves. These formative years provide parents with invaluable opportunities to teach their offspring about themselves and the world they live in.

Early in a child’s life, they require active stimulation and interaction with others. Often this is provided by teachers in early childhood education and care (ECEC) programs.

ECEC is a vast system, consisting of both public and private programs offering part-day or full school days. These initiatives vary in their emphasis on “care” or “education”, sometimes giving equal consideration to both.
