Improving curriculum and teaching methods to influence policy and increase the quality of ECDE provision for children with disabilities in Malawi
This will investigate how to improve the early childhood curriculum and teaching methods of preschool carers and how to raise the quality of early childhood development and education provision for children with disabilities in Malawi. The team will develop and test training programmes for carers, guidelines for drafting individual developmental plans and monitoring and evaluation tools for early childhood development and education providers. The project will also explore how to train people to use the curriculum to support children in early childhood centres and in the community.
