Lecturas de maestras El ingreso de los niños de 3 y 4 años a los colegios públicos de Bogotá

Abstract

During the period 2012-2015, the Administration of Bogotá, within the framework of Law 115 of 1994, encouraged children aged 3 and 4 years to return to the pre-school and kindergarten level in district educational institutions, after several years of being in kindergartens of the District Secretariat of Social Integration and the Colombian Institute of Family Welfare. The two studies presented in this book were carried out with practicing teachers with an important professional trajectory in this cycle of childhood education and with teaching directors from four official educational institutions, which sought to identify beliefs regarding the meaning of early education, in order to recognize strengths and obstacles in the approach of developmental enhancement, as well as analysis from the socio-political, institutional, didactic and personal dimensions of what this entry has represented in the official educational scenario. Today, when the statutory bill that seeks to recognize education as a fundamental right is moving forward, this book offers a valuable panorama to contribute to this construction, as well as to the formative processes of teachers in early childhood education.
