Principle 3
Embrace diversity, equity and inclusion are essential for the betterments of children, especially children’s rights, optimal development and learning.
All children have a right to live and learn in an equitable society. Early childhood settings can plan for meaningful engagement and equitable outcomes for all children.
In IOP, we take into account the differences each child and family brings to an early childhood setting including appearance, age, culture, ethnicity, race, language, gender, sexual orientation, religion, family environment and developmental abilities.
Young children with different abilities, challenges, resources and cultural backgrounds, and their families, come together in early childhood settings. They bring unique life experiences and orientations.
To include everyone, IOP encourage healthy dialogue about the principles and shared beliefs that relate to inclusion, diversity and equity. We recognize every child as a citizen with equal rights and unique views about how to participate in the world.
