AISTEAR describes learning and development through four interconnected themes – well-being, identity & belonging, communicating and exploring & thinking. Aistear’s curriculum focuses on different aspects of pedagogy and describes how we in our pre-school can support your child’s learning and development across the four themes.

SIOLTA is the National Quality Framework for Early Childhood Education. Siolta offers Principles, Standards, Components of Quality and Signposts for Reflection for childcare providers and aims to support engagement with this National Quality Framework.
