Quality early childhood education crucial

The key to high-quality early childhood education is to have a supportive, research-based curriculum that promotes literacy and brain development.

A high-quality program ensures responsive and supportive teaching strategies in the classroom, which encourages a child's social and cognitive development.

Great programs also include ongoing professional development for teachers, and they measure outcomes to make sure children are prepared to start school.
