We are living in a rapidly changing world, where we are becoming more aware of the societal and environmental challenges that impact all of us. As people who live and work with the earth's youngest humans, we make decisions every day that have extraordinary impact on children, ourselves and our communities. As early childhood educators and leaders, how might we start to evolve our approach to early learning and take up the work of creating inclusive, vibrant learning communities in a way that is responsive to our times? How might we nurture an approach to leadership that is constructed around relationships rather than rules?
This institute is supported by using the reflective model which invites participants to think with the ideas shared in the session in their small learning communities.
Learning Outcomes:
- Early childhood educators and leaders will be more confident in creating inclusive, learning communities that are responsive to the program and educators values.
- Early childhood educators and leaders will strengthen their approaches to building relationships with children, families and educators.
