Following the latest trends of global pre-school education, this program reflects a deviation from educational standards and attempts to conceive the educational content in more open way, and adjust it to needs of the local community, school and its profile. Given this, the educational programs of the New Zealand and Scandinavian countries are a significant inspiration. These are not based on educational standards that represent performance norms at the end of the completion of kindergarten. By contrast, these support autonomy of school and teachers and understand the uniqueness and individuality of every child and use a developed system of internal evaluation within school while focusing on the development of social and civic skills of children.
Program Language Gateway Open is designed to observe childrenʼs performance at the end of pre-school education combined with learning encouragement, guidance and support throughout the kindergartenʼs educational process.
This way, children achieve standards given by the standard State Educational Program. However, they can even exceed these standards and thus, the added value in standard education is reached.
In the case of program Language Gateway Open, this added value is represented by a significant multicultural and multilingual environment of the kindergarten. Children are in touch with a wide range of languages as well as communication, cognitive and especially personal and social competences in comparison with the standard State Educational Program designed for pre-school education in the kindergartens (2015).
In order to achieve these objectives of the program Language Gateway Open, the challenge of permanent evaluation by teachers is being encouraged. It offers a specific kind of children evaluation as a part of the program. The evaluation itself is based on the latest trends of pre-school education that are applied in the countries where given evaluation was developed. At the same time, this kind of evaluation was adopted by other countries with a long tradition of pre-school education.
