Early Childhood Education Standards

Early Childhood Education Standards refer to guidelines that establish what children should know and be able to do at different ages. These standards help shape curriculum and testing to ensure children receive a quality education that promotes their development in areas like language, math, and social skills. The goal is to create a consistent framework that educators can follow to support young learners effectively. Compliance with these standards is often required by law, ensuring that programs are held accountable for the educational outcomes of children in their care.
