How Does Understanding the Early Years Work?

Quality data is collected from multiple sources.

• The Early Development Instrument is a teacher questionnaire that assesses how ready children are to learn as they enter school.
• The Parent Interviews and Direct Assessments of Children Survey will generate information on children’s development form the parent’s viewpoint and direct assessments of children will provide information on the abilities and skills of the children.
• Mapping of Community Resources will show where the children in a community live in relation to where the programs and services supporting them and their families can be found.
