A preschool makes a positive contribution to children\u2019s long term development and learning by facilitating an enabling and stimulating environment in these foundation stages of lifelong learning. Preschool is a place which prepares children for the formal school and its challenges and inculcates school readiness skills amongst them.Early years are critical. They lay the foundation for children\u2019s cognitive, personal, social, and physical development[i]. Research says that the brain develops rapidly during the first few years of life[ii]. Therefore, it is important for a child to have an environment which is stimulating for learning and preparing the child for schooling.<\/p>\n<p>The concept of school readiness involves more than just children. School readiness, in the broadest sense, is about children, families, early environments and schools.<\/p>\n<p>This document will focus on preparedness of children for formal schooling i.e. Children\u2019s Readiness.

Children\u2019s ability to think, reason, and use information allows them to acquire knowledge, understand the world around them, and make appropriate decisions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT<\/strong>&#8211;\u00a0refers to the skills necessary to foster secure attachment with adults, maintain healthy relationships, regulate one\u2019s behaviour and emotions, and develop a healthy concept of personal identity.
