Early childhood education is undergoing a global shift from passive supervision to active, inquiry-based learning. At Arcadia International and the Mr. Zak! Center, we have anchored our practice in the New Brunswick Early Learning and Child Care Curriculum Framework. This Canadian standard is not merely a set of rules; it is a pedagogical philosophy that prioritizes a child’s sense of "Belonging, Well-being, and Expression." By implementing this framework in Algeria, we are moving beyond traditional daycare models and into a world where every interaction is an opportunity for cognitive and emotional scaffolding.
