6 Most of the NGO- and UNICEF-supported community pre-schools are targeted towards the most vulnerable and disadvantaged communities. Some NGOs are working in the area of disabilities for young children like the blind children. Some of them focus primarily on street children and children who have been orphaned or are suffering from HIV/AIDS Special projects/ aiming at expanding or improving ECCE: See above Information concerning the curriculum (if applicable) or the contents of ECCE programs Objectives and aims: The quality and effectiveness of pre-school provision is difficult to assess, in part because of a mix of objectives. These include school readiness, elements of preprimary teaching, structured play and social development, initial hygiene and nutrition awareness and broader child minding and childcare. The goals as stated in the curriculum are to develop life skills, emotional values, social, moral and esthetic values linked to the age of the child Learning areas and teaching-learning methods: Pre-numeracy, pre-literacy and integrated science is taught through play-way method.

8 Are any of these targeted specifically toward the vulnerable, poor, disadvantaged or excluded? If so, which ones? (Please provide/attach any additional and relevant information if available). Almost all the NGO and community preschools are targeted towards the poor and vulnerable population Is there a national-level system for monitoring children s development or school readiness prior to entering primary school? The School Readiness Programme was launched by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports in the academic year to address issues of high dropout and repetition rates and poor achievement levels of students in Grade 1. The school readiness programme involves the provision of equal opportunities to all learners through the development of knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to progress successfully at school. The school readiness programme is directed to guide the learners through a learner-centred approach in the most efficient manner according to their own ability to cope with, and in the formal learning situation. Standards for school readiness are under development, the standards would be used to improve instruction and curriculum but would not be used for screening children before they enter school Is there a policy on early childhood (ECCE, ECD, etc.) that has been accepted? If not, is there one under development? The policy on Early Childhood Education was approved by the government in An ECD policy has also been developed and is awaiting approval.
