Preparing young children for transition to school

The Learning Roots programme is designed to meet the development and learning needs of children, from ages three through six, preparing them for a successful transition to primary school. All components of Learning Roots offer support for the most vulnerable children with special attention given to inclusion.

Learning Roots:

Engages parents and caregivers, who are children’s first educators and protectors, by:

• Raising their awareness on the importance of development in the early years
• Enhancing their competencies to support the social and emotional development of their young children, as well as early reading and numeracy skills through play
• Empowering them to be involved in community-based efforts to ensure better local services for learning.
