There is not a national plan of action on ECD proper. However, a recent law passed by Congress makes mandatory 3 years of pre-school as from 2008.
Pre-school is loosely defined as pre-Basic Education ages. Basic Education minimum age is 6-7 years old.
There are both public or private preschools with a wide variety of curricula available.
Pre-school education is formed by three school grades for children in age groups 3 to 6. Infant and toddlers younger than that may also attend public and private day care centers.
SEP runs day care centers called: Cendi’s (Centro de Desarrollo para la Infancia) which received children from 48 days to 4 years old.

There are several special government programs aimed at children with specific
problems: (extreme poverty, Indigenous languages, rural and migrant families, etc)
However a program worth mentioning is the so-called “Oportunidades” (“Chances”).
“Oportunidades” is the off-spring of two programs implement in the previous two
Administrations, so it has benefited from more than 15 years experience.

Oportunidades focuses on education, health and nutrition for families living in extreme poverty, taking care of the children. Each mother receives a monthly allowace in return for securing that her children receive timely vaccination and vitamin suplements, pay regular visits to a doctor, and attend school. The program combines broad coverage –more than 5 million households- and effective targeting, and was recognized last year by the World Bank as one of the best anti-poverty programs worldwide.

Perhaps the two key issues at the moment are:
+ The recent reform making mandatory three years of preschool by 2008. This means that during the next three years, Mexico will have to open pre-schools (either goverment-run or private) and train teachers to double present attendance which is about 3 million children. This is an enomus challenge.
+ The newly approved Pre-school Program, which is now being implemented. There is discussion about its aplication, goals, organization and theoretically framework.K

Key issues

Mexico has not an established, national level, integral, united “voice” to conform teachers, researchers, or associations on early childhood or pre-school education. Perhaps this may not be regarded as a problem for many researchers or educators, since it could be observed as the country’s pluralism as well as a feature of having several “voices” on this field.
Nevertheless, the lack of such integral voice implies that we have no classified information
on all educational and institutional offers available at this level. The lack of information
jeopardizes the chances for parents, researchers, educators, or groups interested on
school activities, to learn and compare about financing, and childhood care matters.P

To desing and implement a media (Internet Website) at the national level, through which preschool educators or interested people can interact and communicate among themselves.
To establish a net and possibly a link for all people interested on, and involved with, childhood education in Mexico.

EARLY CHILDHOOD CARE DEVELOPMENT IN MEXICO
M.A. Iván Galindo Herrera. Colegio Erik Erikson Tel. 01-442-216-92-16 y 216-89-94 E-mail:[email protected]
Mexico’s educational system has some 33 million students. 90
percent attend public schools.
There is a Federal (national) authority responsible for the educational system. The authority lays on the Secretaría de Educación Pública (SEP). SEP has the status of a full ministry and the Secretary is part of the President´s cabinet.
M.A. Iván Galindo Herrera. Colegio Erik Erikson Tel. 01-442-216-92-16 y 216-89-94 E-mail:[email protected]
SEP has just been re-structured. It is now organized in three main Undersecretaries: Basic Education, Middle Education, and Higher Education. There are as much as 30 General Directors. SEP is also responsible for cultural institutions and programs (for example the Institute for Fine Arts and the Institute for History and Anthropology).
M.A. Iván Galindo Herrera. Colegio Erik Erikson Tel. 01-442-216-92-16 y 216-89-94 E-mail:[email protected]
SEP is in Charge of regulating and over-seeing Basic Education curricula,Programs and text-books. Additionally, each state has its own educational authority, which is in charge of the day-to-day school affairs.
Basic Education (pre-school, primary and secondary schools –K plus 9 years) accounts for around 30 million students.
M.A. Iván Galindo Herrera. Colegio Erik Erikson Tel. 01-442-216-92-16 y 216-89-94 E-mail:[email protected]
There are approximately 6.5 million children in ages 3-5 years old. Around 60 percent of them attend pre-school, mainly public schools.
Pre-school attendance varies from one region to other, showing Mexico’s acute social and economic contrasts. National average attendance is 70.8 percent for age-groups 4-5 years old.
M.A. Iván Galindo Herrera. Colegio Erik Erikson Tel. 01-442-216-92-16 y 216-89-94 E-mail:[email protected]
A recent reform passed by Congress will make mandatory three years of preschool by 2008. In the next three years, Mexico will have to open preschools (either government-run or private) and train teachers for about 3 million children.

SEP´s pre-school guide –lines have the following features:• Theoretically, it bears a constructivist approach.• Group-aging is more flexible now (it used to be quite rigid and a minimum age was required for admittance).• Some of the curriculum goals still stress the achieving of children “competences” in different Knowledge areas.• Children interests are now considered, and they are an important part of pre-school activities.
