Process factors close to children’s everyday life in early childhood education have the greatest impact on the quality of children’s experience and outcomes.

The Inclusive Early Childhood Education (IECE) project found that process factors that have a great impact on the quality of children’s experience include relationships, interaction between children and adults in pre-school and between the children, play, forms of learning and participation.

Project findings and recommendations from the Inclusive Early Childhood Education project can be found in a series of outputs.

The positive benefits of early childhood education directly relate to and depend upon high-quality structural and process elements, such as funding and parental involvement.

The Inclusive Early Childhood Education (IECE) project found that although there are cultural and societal differences in the perspectives on quality in early childhood education, the dimensions of high-quality probably share enough features to assert that the general dimensions of high-quality are universal.
