Overview of European ECEC curricula and curriculum template [Executive summary]

Description:
This report considers the Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) curriculum throughout Europe. It explores the official curriculum, specified by national or regional governments, along with the implemented curriculum that is provided 'on the ground' by staff to enhance children's development. The official curriculum documents at national or regional level are often called 'steering documents'. Moreover, the implemented curriculum is sometimes called the 'experienced' or the 'realised' curriculum, i.e., what the staff realise in their daily practice and what the children experience day by day.
