Discussion

According to the National Early Childhood Care and Education Policy, what measures are emphasized to ensure inclusion of all children, especially those at risk of development delays and disabilities ?

  • A.Providing exclusive educational facilities for children with special needs
  • B.Establishing appropriate linkages with concerned programmes and sectors for early detection and interventions
  • C.Implementing standardised testing for early childhood development
  • D.Promoting competitive environment for child development

Answer: B

The policy emphasises establishing appropriate linkages with concerned programmes and sectors for early detection and interventions.

The National Early Childhood Care and Education Policy, 2013 commits to inclusion of all children, including those with developmental delays and disabilities, in mainstream ECCE. It calls for early identification and intervention through links with health, nutrition and disability programmes.

Exclusive separate facilities would segregate these children, which is the opposite of inclusion. Standardised testing and a competitive environment are inappropriate for young children and are discouraged by the policy's play-based approach.
