The curriculum is a key material for preschool teachers to better grasp the Good Start methodology and to facilitate its implementation in daily classroom practice. It offers a theoretical background, a pervasiveness of key competences, but above all it gives precise guidelines for working with children that teachers can easily transfer to their practice or be inspired by. Since the Good Start methodology and the Curriculum emphasise the social and emotional development of the child, cooperation between the school and the family is very important, and the Curriculum does not forget this.
Good Start as a building block of the SPP
The methodology is based on the Czech Framework Education Program (RVP) and is compatible with other school curricula. We have prepared the Good Start Curriculum, which teachers can easily incorporate directly into the classroom curriculum. We will be happy to help teachers to introduce and implement the methodology into the preschool practice.
