Zusammenfassung: | This chapter explores early childhood education and care developments in OECD countries. It describes the historical contexts in which policies and programs have evolved, discusses the different policy and program choices that countries have made, and documents the quantity and quality of provison. A proposed typology classifies countries according to several emerging models for delivering early childhood education and care. The chapter concludes with a brief discussion of trends and emerging issues. |
