The government is working on an ambitious plan to form a national policy on early childhood education that would partly promote equal children’s rights to early childhood care and education.
Benedict Missani, the Deputy Director for Youth Development in the Ministry of Community Development, Gender and Children, said this on Monday.
He was speaking at the official launch of a study dubbed ‘landscaping the early childhood education landscape in Tanzania.
This is a research conducted by the Aga Khan University Institute for Educational Development East Africa, University of Victoria Canada and the Tanzania Early Childhood Development Network.
He reaffirmed that the plan is part of ongoing education sector reforms now going on in the country.
Saying the policy on early childhood education is in final stages, he noted that a ministerial technical committee would approve it before it is tabled in the national assembly.
