Last modified: 2025-07-20
Abstract
The development of early childhood education, one of the most effective investments in the development of human capital, is at the center of European and national educational policies. The educational policies dedicated to this segment aim at expanding access, increasing the quality of services and supporting social equity. In Romania, in spite of some legislative and institutional progress, challenges persist in terms of the participation of children, particularly those from vulnerable groups, infrastructure and qualified personnel. The article identifies public policies in the field and recommends strategic directions for strengthening the early childhood education system.
