„Not enrolling children who would benefit from ECEC is a missed opportunity but evidence also suggests that enrolling children in poor-quality ECEC can be detrimental to their social and emotional development and overall well-being at an age when they are highly vulnerable. In contrast, participation in high-quality ECEC yields multiple benefits for children, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds.“
