LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT IN EARLY AGES
Abstract
development and social progress depend on the investments that are made in children through services provided by the state for the children`s development in proper social and education conditions.
Along with Romania`s adherence to the European Union the state policies for childcare have undergone serious changes. They have been given the chance to grow and develop harmoniously according to their innate data and nature.
Thus, educational, sanitary and social regulations have been adopted trying to offer children better development conditions. Romania tried to comply with EU regulations on early age care and development.
This article is a comparison between early education curriculum in Romania and other European states.
