A child who participates in early childhood education has the right to receive support in accordance with the Act on Early Childhood Education (Section 15 a). Early childhood education must be organized and developed according to the principle of inclusion and then all children, regardless of e.g. need for support or disability, right to participate in joint early childhood education activities. When the support is given at the right time, individually and in accordance with the child’s needs, the child’s development, learning and well-being are promoted. To support the child, the staff and the guardians, there are special teachers in early childhood education within the municipality.
