Resumen
Descripción
This report presents an analysis of the
Early Childhood Development (ECD) subsector, including
programs and policies that affect young children in the
Solomon Islands. This was a collaborative effort between
UNICEF and World Bank Group, as it combines World Bank
Group’s SABER-ECD framework, which includes analysis of
early learning, health, nutrition, and social and child
protection policies and interventions in the Solomon
Islands, along with regional and international comparisons,
as well as the regionally developed UNICEF National
Situational Analysis-ECD, which takes a greater in-depth
look at the following system components, which have been
highlighted by the Pacific Region as priority components for
quality Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE)
implementation: policy/legislation and governance; human
resources; curriculum, child assessment, and environment;
performance monitoring and assessment; and community
partnerships. The government of the Solomon Islands (SIG)
recognizes the importance of providing early learning
opportunities for young children. In 2008 the Ministry of
Education and Human Resources Development (MEHRD) endorsed a
National Early Childhood Education Policy Statement,
targeting age’s three to five, which states its commitment
to develop a quality Early Childhood Education (ECE) sector.
This commitment has been reflected in both the National
Education Action Plan, 2013–2015, and the Education
Strategic Framework, 2007–2015. However, the statement
clearly identified ‘in relation to quality practice, the
payment and training of teachers, relevant curriculum,
effective management, community awareness about the value of
ECCE and children’s access and participation in ECCE’ as
challenges to the implementation of ECCE services.
