Full textAbstract:
This article presents the results of a qualitative study with the aim of contributing to an understanding of preschool managers’ leadership in systematic quality work in a Swedish context. In line with the Education Act and the preschool curriculum, systematic quality work is compulsory in all Swedish preschools. This consists of several steps, including data collection, documentation and self-evaluation for the purpose of professional development and quality improvement. With the aid of interviews, preschool managers’ perspectives on leadership actions, with an emphasis on a leadership for learning, have been analysed in relation to local conditions and previous research. The results show that preschool managers balance the demands for loyalty to the municipality’s quality system’s requirements with their own preschool’s independence in the systematic quality work. In different ways they emphasise the organisational, content-related and methodological aspects of their long-term strategies, but also use relational and organisational leadership actions and feedback to show how they expect the staff to carry out their work with the children and collaborate with colleagues. The preschool’s conditions, such as the staff’s education levels, affect how the systematic quality work is organised and led. The importance of preschool managers’ professional knowledge – a content-related dimension – is discussed in relation to previous research on the concept of leadership for learning. One of the study’s conclusions is that the preschool’s leadership emphasis on organisational solutions could impede the preschool’s quality development.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years, preschool education has become an important topic in the Czech Republic. Since 1990, the system of preschool education has undergone a number of qualitative changes. A modern preschool curriculum has been created and is constantly being reviewed in line with the needs of society and educational policy objectives.One of the problems of the past decade concerns the high number of pupils with postponed compulsory attendance. This has become a challenge for both teachers and researchers. One of the steps that could help was the enactment of compulsory preschool education in 2017. More attention should therefore be given to systematic preparation of children for starting compulsory education on the basis of individualization in education. However, this requires teachers to use high-quality educational diagnostics in order to ensure children’s development with respect to their capabilities, interests and needs. A team of experts at the Faculty of Education at Palacký University is currently developing and validating an online application as an educational diagnostic instrument that should systematically monitor children’s progress as well as highlight potential problems and eliminate them in time. In the development of the instrument, the team builds on the current trends in preschool education, a number of educational theories and the work of renowned authors (Rogers, Piaget, Bandura, etc.) An interesting and inspiring view of the development and education of preschool children is presented by social constructivism and its main proponent Lev Semyonovich Vygotsky, whose ideas and legacy are outlined in the present study.

Currently, preschool education has evolved, even it has been revolutionized. This fact is shown by the large content of academic teaching materials such as reading, writing, and arithmetic which is still controversial must be taught in preschool education, which seems to be a compulsory subject for preschool children. Although government regulations have regulated properly and ideally how preschool education should be implemented, ironically due to competition between preschool institutions and the demands of parents, many preschool institutions fulfill their curricula with academic content. This study aims to obtain an overview of the academic-oriented preschool learning process in planning, implementation, and evaluation.

Full textAbstract:
Coding is increasingly recognized as a new literacy that should be encouraged at a young age. This understanding has recontextualized computer science as a compulsory school subject and has informed several developmentally appropriate approaches to computation, including for preschool children. This study focuses on the introduction of three approaches to computation in preschool (3–6 years), specifically computational thinking, programming, and robotics, from a cross-curricular perspective. This paper presents preliminary findings from one of the case studies currently being developed as part of project KML II—Laboratory of Technologies and Learning of Programming and Robotics for Preschool and Elementary School. The purpose of the KML II project is to characterize how approaches to computation can be integrated into preschool and elementary education, across different knowledge domains. The conclusions point to “expression and communication” as an initial framework for computational approaches in preschool, but also to multidisciplinary and more creative methodological activities that offer greater scope for the development of digital and computational competences, as well as for personal and social development.

Purpose: This paper examines transition from Preschool to Standard One in the Early Childhood Education programme implemented in 2013 in Botswana public primary schools.
Methodology: The methodology employed in this study is the qualitative approach with multi-case study technique to investigate the implementation of the Early Childhood Education programme. Transitional Bilingual Education is used as the theoretical framework to benchmark the realities of transition from Preschool to Standard One classrooms. Data collection was done using open ended questionnaires, interviews, focus group discussions and scrutiny of learners’ artifacts.
Results: The findings indicated that transition is not smooth due to the languages of instruction used at both Preschool and Standard One, learners who do not attend Preschool and lack of teacher aides in Standard One classes. The study concluded that there must be harmonization of languages of instruction at both levels to enable smooth transition.
Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: Lastly, the study recommends compulsory Preschool learning for all young learners before entry into Standard One.

Introduction. The problematic of social disadvantaged children and compulsory pre-primary school year are actual theme not just for teachers in kindergartens. The aims of compulsory pre-primary school year are equalizing the developmental differences in children development, eliminate handicaps which they bring from families and easier the beginning of primary schooling. The main aim of the research in this chapter, is to highlight the issue of social disadvantaged children and their status in the kindergarten. Methodology. By using three case studies the author has found out how a status of a social disadvantaged child influence a child and its family. The children were from the second class of the kindergarten in the age 5-7. Also, how this problematic is seen by pedagogical workers in chosen kindergarten. As respondents were chosen two teachers in the kindergarten and one teacher assistant, who works directly with the children. The qualitative research was conducted in the kindergarten which is placed in small village with 700 habitats in Vysočina district, Czech Republic. Findings. According to the teachers it is crucial to work differently with the social disadvantaged children. It is important to keep the individual attitude to each child, use diverse method of work with children and keep the motivation high. The children from the social disadvantaged families not always visit the kindergarten. In the Czech Republic, it is an obligation to attend at least one year before the start of compulsory schooling. The environment where they live is not always stimulating enough for the equal development. The kindergarten is place where they can get the potential, familiarize with many activities and rituals. Conclusions. The main challenge is link families of children who visit the kindergarten and continue developing the idea of active family and child from social disadvantaged environment. Due to this attitude the next generation can be influence by this positive thinking. Thus, it can help to build next positive and engaging generation.

PhD thesis, Murdoch University, 2007. http://researchrepository.murdoch.edu.au/203/.
Full textAbstract:
The study produces a genealogy of 'the child' as the shifting subject constituted by the confluence of discourses that are utilized by, and surround, Western Australian precompulsory education. The analysis is approached as a genealogy of governmentality building on the work of Foucault and Rose, which enables the consideration of the research question that guides this study: How has 'the child' come to be constituted as a subject of regimes of practices of pre-compulsory education in Western Australia?
This study does not explore how the historical discourses changed in relation to 'the child' as a universal subject of early education, but it examines the multiple ways 'the child' was constituted by these discourses as the subject at which government is to be aimed, and whose characteristics government must harness and instrumentalize. Besides addressing the research question, the study also develops a set of intertwining arguments. In these the author contends that 'the child' is invented through historically contingent ideas about the individual and that the way in which 'the child' is constituted in pre-compulsory education shifts in concert with the changing problematizations about the government of the population and individuals. Further, the study demonstrates the necessity to understand the provision of pre-compulsory education as a political practice.
Looking at pre-compulsory education as a political practice de-stabilizes the takenfor-granted constitutions of 'the child' embedded in present theories, practices and research with children in the field of early childhood education. It also enables the de- and reconstruction of the notions of children's 'participation', 'empowerment' and 'citizenship'. The continuous de- and reconstruction of these notions and the destabilization of the constitutions of 'the child' creates a framework in which improvement is possible, rather than a utopian, wholesale and, thus revolutionary, transformation in early education (Branson and Miller, 1991, p. 187). This study also contributes to the critiques of classroom discipline approaches by reconceptualizing them as technologies of government in order to reveal the power relations they silently wield.

Full textAbstract:
The perspective of inclusion within the preschool and school system implies that children of the same age should be able to be taught together and participate in the same context despite their qualifications. Differences must be looked upon as a resource and the teaching process should be adapted to suit children’s needs rather than the children having to adapt to the environment. However, what does the inclusion of children with special needs actually look like within the preschool and school system? The aim of this study was to investigate which role the special educators play in the inclusion process. Also, to find out possible similarities and differences between their work in preschool compared to the lower level of compulsory school. Two principals and seven pedagogues from different educational fields, all working within the same school area, were interviewed. The results showed that the work of the special educators differed between the two educational systems. The work within the school system was more topic-oriented whereas the work within the preschool system emphasized on communication and interaction. There were however more similarities than differences. For example the way the special educators mapped the different needs of the children and how they cooperated with other pedagogues. All pedagogues and the principals were convinced that the special educators played an important role in encouraging inclusion.

Teknikämnet har, sedan det fick en egen kursplan, åsidosatts i skolorna. Deltagande observationer och intervjuer med lärare verksamma i varierade åldersgrupper, visade samma resultat gällande tankar kring teknikundervisningen som de uppfattningar som litteraturstudien visat. Det framgår att många lärare inte uppfattar sin ämneskompetens som tillräcklig och att de inte vet hur de ska förhålla sig till ämnet i undervisningen. Resultaten av dessa studier ligger till grund för ett läromedel, bestående av en elevbok och en lärarhandledning, som utgår både från Lpfö 98 och centrala innehållet för år 1-3 och 4-6 ur kursplanen i teknik i Lgr 11.Technology has been neglected at schools, since the subject got it’s own syllabus. After making observations of teaching in various age groups, and also conducted interviews with teachers, their opinions and thoughts about technology were in accordance with the findings from the literature study. It seems that many teachers don’t have full confidence in their own knowledge of the subject, and they were also unsure on how to approach the subject in their teaching. The results of the studies inspired the creation of a teaching-aid which consists of two books, one is a teaching-guide and the other is for the pupils. It is based on Lpfö 98 (revised 2010), as well as the core content in year 1-3 and 4-6 from the technology syllabus in Lgr 11.

A tese, aqui apresentada, foi produzida a partir de uma pesquisa qualitativa, cuja proposta foi investigar quais os significados, sobre a pré-escola, presentes nas narrativas dos atores dos processos educativos (supervisores da Secretaria Municipal de Educação, equipe diretiva de escolas, professores, crianças e famílias), incluindo a concepção de transição para o Ensino Fundamental, bem como estes definem a identidade da pré-escola, diante do novo ordenamento legal da obrigatoriedade de frequência. Assim, com a intenção de compreender como os atores envolvidos no processo educativo significam a pré-escola, a pesquisa foi em busca de suas narrativas, para, então, conhecer o relato sobre suas ações, seus pensamentos e suas concepções, tornando evidente aquilo que os atores sociais fazem e pensam sobre a educação das crianças pequenas. Esta investigação foi realizada em um município no interior do Rio Grande do Sul e contou com a participação de 17 adultos, dentre profissionais da educação e representantes das famílias, e 2 grupos de crianças, um que frequentava o 1º ano do Ensino Fundamental e outro que frequentava a pré-escola. Como estratégias metodológicas, foram utilizadas de forma dominante as entrevistas, mas também foram gerados dados a partir de fotografias de espaços e documentos administrativos. A análise de dados apresenta dois eixos que evidenciam os significados produzidos pelos participantes da pesquisa: o primeiro trata das concepções e ações presentes nas narrativas dos atores do processo educativo acerca da pré-escola; e o segundo traz, sob a perspectiva das crianças, suas relações com a escola, suas concepções de infância e criança, de transição entre a Educação Infantil e o Ensino Fundamental e de obrigatoriedade de frequência de crianças, a partir dos 4 anos de idade, na escola.The thesis presented here was produced from a qualitative study whose purpose was to investigate the meanings in the narratives of the educational processes (Supervisors Education's Departament of City, schools' management team, teachers , children and families) about the pre-school, including the transition's design to Elementary School, and how they define the identity of preschool before the new legal system of compulsory attendance.Thus, with intent to understand how involved actors in the educational process mean preschool, the study was in search of their narratives, and then know the story about their actions, thoughts and ideas, making clear what the social actors do and think about the young children' education .This was held in a municipality in the countryside of Rio Grande do Sul, and had the participation of 17 adults among education professionals and representatives of families and 2 groups of children, one consisting of children attending the 1st year of Elementary School and another by children who attended Preschool. As methodological strategies were used, in dominant form, interviews, but data from spaces' photographs and administrative documents were also generated. The data analysis has two axes that document the meanings produced by research participants, the first dealing with concepts and actions present in the actors' narratives in the educational process on the Preschool and the second brings the perspective of their relations with children school, the concepts of childhood and children, transitional between Children Education and Elementary Education and about compulsory attendance for children from 4 years of age.

Así, con la intención de comprender cómo los actores involucrados en el proceso educativo significan dicha enseñanza, la pesquisa fue buscar sus narrativas, para, después, conocer el relato de sus acciones, sus pensamientos y concepciones, evidenciando qué los actores hacen y piensan sobre la educación de los niños más pequeños. Esa investigación he sido hecha en una ciudad en el interior del Rio Grande del Sur y contó con la participación de 17 adultos, entre profesionales de la educación y representantes de las familias, y 2 grupos de niños, uno frecuentó el 1º año de Enseñanza Básica y el otro estudió en la Enseñanza Inicial. Como estrategias metodológicas han sido utilizados las entrevistas y también datos generados a partir de fotografías de espacios y documentos administrativos. Los datos del análisis mostraron dos ejes que evidencian los significados producidos por los participantes de la investigación: uno muestra las concepciones y acciones presentes en las narrativas de los actores del proceso educativo acerca de la Enseñanza Inicial. El otro trae, a partir de la perspectiva de los niños, sus relaciones con la escuela, sus concepciones de la niñez y de los niños, de la transición entre la Enseñanza Inicial y Primaria, y aún de la obligatoriedad de frecuencia de los niños a la escuela, a partir de los 4 años de edad.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad införandet av obligatorisk förskoleklass innebär för läsundervisningen i årskurs f–1. Studiens teoretiska ram utgår från läroplans- och ramfaktorteorin. Studiens data omfattas av olika regeringsförslag, den nya läroplanens framskrivning gällande förskoleklass och läsning i f–1 följt av åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra läromedelsförfattare och fyra verksamma f–1 lärare. Insamlade data analyserades utifrån Lindes (2012) tolkning av läroplansteorins tre arenor: formuleringsarenan, transformeringsarenan och realiseringsarenan. De tre arenorna samt ramfaktorer som läroplan, tid och behörighet är centrala i analysen av resultatet. Resultatet visar att införandet av en obligatorisk förskoleklass har potential att bidra till många fördelar gällande den livsviktiga läsundervisningen och den enskilda elevens läsutveckling, då fokus nu kan läggas på läsundervisningens progression och lärare kan fånga upp de svaga eleverna i ett tidigare skede. Studiens resultat visar också att läroplanens framskrivning för förskoleklass kan komma att bidra till en utökad undervisningstid i förskoleklass, eftersom förskoleklassens timplan fortfarande varierar från skola till skola trots det obligatoriska införandet. Det råder dock delade meningar om vad införandet av obligatorisk förskoleklass innebär för läsundervisningen i årskurs f–1 och hur vidare läsundervisningen kommer att förändras eller bedrivas på samma sätt som innan. Slutligen indikerar studiens resultat att det finns vissa oklarheter om vem som ska arbeta i förskoleklass, lärare eller förskollärare, och att det beslutet kan bära med sig konsekvenser för att kunna uppnå en likvärdig skola för alla.

Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att analysera hur förskolan, barn och familjen uppfattas i den mediala debatten om obligatorisk förskola. Studien lägger ett särskilt fokus på argumenten som är centrala i debatten som förs i svenska dagstidningar. Med verktyg från argumentationsanalysen som teoretiskt och metodologisk utgångspunkt kommer aktörernas argument att analyseras utifrån en pro et contra perspektiv. Det empiriska underlaget som är utgångspunkt för denna studie är debattartiklar som publicerats i svenska dagstidningar som debatterar obligatorisk förskolas vara eller icke vara. Empirin har analyserats genom en argumentationsanalys som presenteras tematiskt i resultatet. En betydelsefull teoretisk utgångspunkt i studien har varit argumentationsteoretiska idéer om hur en kan aktör kan använda argumenterande strategier för att påverka en mottagare.Resultatet pekar på att det finns en allmän uppfattning i debattartiklarna att barn behöver skydd, sociala sammanhang, utveckling och lärande och trygga vuxna. Hur och var barnens behov tillgodoses är argumentationens kontrovers. Det framkommer även att aktörer på båda sidorna i debatten upplever att förskolans brister måste åtgärdas samt att familjens position i samhället utmanas av förslaget om obligatorisk förskola. Resultatet pekar även mot att barn till nyanlända anses ha behov av statliga instanser och resurser som staten bör besluta om, men att det inte bör påverka svenska barn eller barn med autismdiagnoser och deras familjer.The aim of this essay is to analyze how preschool, children and the family are perceived in the media debate on compulsory preschool. The study places a special focus on the arguments that are dominant in the debate conducted in Swedish newspapers. With tools from the argument analysis as a theoretical and methodological starting point, the agents arguments will be analyzed from a pro et contra perspective.The empirical material that is the basis for this study is debate articles published in Swedish newspapers that debate compulsory preschools being or not being. The empiric has been analyzed through an argumentation analysis that is presented thematically in the result. An important theoretical basis of the study has been the argument theoretical ideas about how an agent can use argumentative strategies to influence a recipient.The results indicate that there is a general perception in debate articles that children need safety, social contexts, development and learning and adults present. How and where the children's needs are met is the controversy of the debate. It also emerges that agents on both sides of the debate feel that the preschool's shortcomings must be remedied and that the family's position in society is challenged by the proposal for compulsory preschool. The results also indicate that children of immigrants are considered to need government agencies and resources that the state should decide on, but the government agencies should not affect the Swedish children or children with autism diagnoses and their families.

The diploma thesis concerns with the school readiness issue in region Cesky Brod. High number of children with compulsory school attendance postponement resists these days, which the government decided to solve with compulsory preprimary year implementation. When framework education programs came into force, schools drew up their own school education programs. The basis, with which they enter the school, diversified. The goal of the thesis is to determine the areas in which most children had problems during the first grade enrollments in Cesky Brod region. The readiness of children to enter school is studied also from the parents' and the teachers' point of view and their points of view are compared. The research combines three methods - observation, questionnaire and case history. For the research during the first grades enrollments the observation was chosen. On the basis of the theory the areas for observation were determined and assessed according to the chosen assessment criteria. The points of view of the parents and teachers were examined in the questionnaire. The areas in which the most children had difficulties during the first grades enrollments were graphomotory and speech development. The parents and the teachers also share this opinion. Weak attention span is mention, in addition, by...

In the diploma thesis I concentrated on an approach of preschool teachers to children whose school attendance was postponed. Thesis is divided in two parts. In theoretical part I deal with a definition of school maturity and readiness, which are the basics to find child's troubles with postponement of school attendance. Then I delineate present situation in the Czech Republic - I define contemporary concept of preschools, I deal with compulsory school education and possibility of postponement of school attendance. In the last chapter of the theoretical part I concentrate on the approach of teachers and in sub-chapters I define activities and impact which they have. In empirical part I used a snowball sampling to approach some preschool teachers. Eleven teachers from Prague and Plzeň region have participated the research. After filling in questionnaires focused on individual children whose school attendance will be postponed, questions were adapted to the main research method - interview. Using thematical analysis I discovered various approaches of teachers to organizing forms of work, cooperation with parents, cooperation with specialists, documents in preschools, contemporary perspective of postponement of school attendance in the Czech Republic.

Three goals have been set: how teachers of selected primary schools in Českobudějovicko diagnose school readiness during enrollment for compulsory school attendance, what is their experience with school start postponement and early school starts (before 6 years), and to see if elementary schools cooperate with kindergartens in enrollment for compulsory school attendance. To achieve the goals was used qualitative research, an interrogation method, semi-structured interview technique.

Full textAbstract:
The present review study informs the readers about the development and the concept of school maturity and about research studies performed during the last 10 years at the Faculty of Education, Palacký University in Olomouc. The first part of the study presents an overview of experimental as well as theoretical approaches in the area of starting compulsory education in the context of chronological changes related to psychology, education, and education policy. The second part of the study comprises an overview of research studies and relevant outcomes in the context of preschool curriculum. The present study is based on research conducted at the Faculty of Education, Palacký University under various projects and theses. The third part of the study includes a critical analysis, the purpose of which is to identify positive and negative impacts of current approaches on preschool education. The final part includes recommendations for educational practice in kindergartens. The objective of the paper is to describe the development of the concept of school maturity, which has a significant effect on starting compulsory education and children's attitudes to school and learning. The results presented herein not only highlight the system of assessment of school maturity in the Czech Republic but also the problem areas that need to be addressed in order to achieve the objectives of the preschool curriculum and develop children's key competences. In many European countries, preschool education is being reformed to reflect on the introduction and verification of the preschool curriculum. The results have the potential to open a broad international debate on the issue of preparing children for starting school in the context of the development of their key competences. The present research study is of a mixed design. The basic method is a document content analysis. The analysis was performed from a historical development perspective and included relevant documents, legal acts, and data from previous research studies carried out in the Czech Republic. Based on the resulting data, an overall assessment was performed and practical conclusions for kindergartens formulated. The research was conducted between 2016 and 2017.

Full textAbstract:
The current tendency of the European educational strategy on the compulsory children’s involvement in the preschool education before elementary school raises the issue of preparing children for school and the preschool education functioning, modernization and updating the content and technology of pedagogical activities at this stage. The article highlights the innovation of the Polish theory and practice in preparing a child for school i.e. the transfer of the pedagogical diagnosis function in school readiness from psychologists to preschool teachers. The organization of systematic, daily observation and interpretation of children's activities has become an integral part of the teacher's work. The essence of systematic pedagogical diagnostics of school readiness in Polish preschool institutions is revealed. On the basis of retrospective analysis, it is highlighted the evolutionary development in Polish pedagogy of the diagnosing children's readiness problem in school. According to the chronological principle, diagnostic methods are systematized; their semantic and procedural aspects are characterized. It is substantiated that as a result of diagnostic techniques, mastering the tools and ability to perform diagnostic procedures, the teacher gets the opportunity to determine the degree of mental and social development of the child, which contributes to school tasks, as well as factors that determine this development. The teacher forms a complex child’s profileconcerningthe knowledge and competencies, and on its basis develops a strategy of pedagogical influence and interaction with the child at the beginning of school.

Full textAbstract:
Collaboration in all educational institutions including pre-school establishments is a topical issue especially within the framework of competence-based learning approaches. The aim of the study was to find out what is the collaboration between pre-school and parents in relation to the acquisition of pre-school curriculum which in Latvia is defined as compulsory for children in the age of 5 to 6 (7) years. A quantitative approach was used in the research and two surveys were conducted in April 2020. Both parents and pre-school teachers who work with 5 to 6 (7) year old children were asked to participate in the on-line survey, which was developed in the platform VisiDati.lv. Analysis of collaboration between parents and preschool was based on the framework of six types of school-family-community involvement created by J.L. Epstein. The research analysis revealed that pre-school teachers and parents have different understandings of the child’s need for parental support so that parents can get involved and promote the acquisition of compulsory pre-school curriculum. Teachers and parents have clear communication channels to fully exchange the necessary information, however, to form collaboration, teachers have difficulties in developing individual curricula in some cases. The research results are useful to understand what hinders cooperation and how to improve it.
