As you may be aware the Department of Education has introduced inspections of preschool services taking part in the ECCE program. To quote from the department’s web page:-
“During these inspections, we evaluate the quality of the nature, range and appropriateness of the early educational experiences for children participating in the ECCE Programme. The main activity of an EYEI inspection is the observation, by the inspector, of the processes and practices relating to children’s learning in one or more learning rooms or areas in the early-years setting”
The inspections are carried out under four headings, there are :-
-Context to support children’s learning and development.
-Quality of processes to support children’s learning and development.
-Quality of children’s learning experience and achievements
-Management & Leadership
We are very pleased and proud to announce that we have been awarded “Excellent”, the highest award possible, in each of the four headings inspected. A big thank you to all staff involved in designing and implementing our “Step Ahead” curriculum.
