Early Childhood Education is a profession of learning; learning how to guide and support young children; learning how to lead programming and curriculum; learning how to lead a center; learning how to best support families. That list could go on and on about learning how to do something, but have you considered how to develop and nurture the learning culture at your center?
Program or classroom culture is the set of fundamental beliefs, values, and assumptions that the staff, families, and children share. Positive program culture is critical for helping young children feel safe, trusted, trusting, included and inclusive so they are free to explore and learn.
