Publié le Dimanche, 19 janvier 2014Last updated on Dimanche, 11 juin 2017
This discussion paper examines the impact of various pre-school models in promoting school readiness and effective transition from pre-schools to primary education programs in Kenya. Focusing on the findings from the school readiness study done in Nairobi, it provides examples on how different pre-school models in varying socio-economic statuses prepare children for formal learning in primary school. In this context, the effectiveness of pre-school models in enhancing developmental readiness amongst school aged children is questioned and the current transition challenges are addressed.
