Curriculum and programs

Curriculum and programs

The educators at Goodstart Early Learning follow an evidence-based curriculum that aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework. Informed by world-leading research, practices and techniques, the curriculum encourages the children’s natural curiosity and engages them in their learning journey.

As the children move through the different rooms in the centre, the curriculum evolves with them. The educators set goals for the children and celebrate as they reach their milestones. At every stage, the educators are tailoring the curriculum and goals to each child’s individual needs.

The curriculum involves different types of learning experiences and styles. From child-led learning to sessions guided by educators, the children participate in small and large group sessions as well as individual play. Most importantly, the children learn through play, developing social skills, confidence and independence in addition to more formal academic skills.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

Goodstart Early Learning uses the StoryPark app to connect with parents throughout the day. The educators upload photos and stories to the secure app, which parents can access anytime and anywhere to track their child’s progress. 

The approach at the centre is very much based around partnership between families and educators. The educators work with the parents and carers to build strong relationships. They develop trust so the children can feel safe and secure while at the centre. Parents are also encouraged to share their insights and feedback with educators to add depth to the relationship.

The educators observe the children every day and tailor the program around their observations. They share these with parents, so they can feel connected to their child’s progress and also provide feedback that will further enhance their child’s learning experience.

I recently attended the orientation at this centre with my 7-month-old, and I was extremely disappointed with the level of care and attentiveness shown by the educator. During the visit, toddlers were allowed to hover around my baby, and on more than one occasion, she was smacked on her face or nearly kicked, yet the educator barely responded or intervened. This happened twice within a short time frame, and it became clear to me that this environment is not safe or nurturing for an infant, especially in the absence of a parent. I decided after the second day not to continue with this centre. If you are considering childcare for a young baby, I would highly recommend looking into a private nanny instead, especially if you can afford it, to ensure your child receives the attention and safety they deserve.
