Ubuchopho bomntwana osanda kuzalwa bungama-25% kuphela wobukhulu bawo obudala, kodwa bukhula ngokushesha eminyakeni embalwa yokuqala yokuphila, kwakheka ukuxhumana kwemizwa engaphezu kwesigidi ngomzuzwana.
Lesi sikhathi sokukhula ngokushesha kobuchopho sibalulekile ekufundeni kwengane kwesikhathi esizayo, ukuziphatha, kanye nempilo, kanye nekhwalithi yemfundo yangaphambi kwesikhathi kanye nokukhuliswa kungasiza ekwandiseni amandla ayo. Kubale uClarissa Louw, Uthishanhloko we-@Sandton-Kids Creche.
Phakathi neminyaka emihlanu yokuqala ekukhuleni komntwana, okuhlangenwe nakho kwabo kunendima enkulu ekulolongeni ukukhula kwabo.
Izikhungo Zokuthuthukiswa Kwezingane Ezincane (ECD) zidlala indima ebalulekile ekulungiseleleni izingane ukuya esikoleni nasekuthuthukiseni ukukhula kwazo ngokomzimba, ngokwengqondo, nenhlalakahle kusukela zizalwa ziye eminyakeni engu-8 ubudala, zinikeze izingane amakhono ayisisekelo adingekayo ukuze zifunde kamuva ngemisebenzi esekelwe ekudlaleni kanye nolwazi.
Izingane ezithola imfundo ye-ECD esezingeni eliphezulu maningi amathuba okuthi zibe nemiphumela engcono yezemfundo neyokucabanga. Ukuthuthukiswa okungcono komphakathi-ngokomzwelo, nokuzilawula okungcono, ukuxazulula izinkinga, namakhono okuxhumana.
Kungani imfundo yezikhungo Zokuthuthukiswa Kwezingane Ezincane ibaluleke kangaka ekuhlinzekeni izingane ngamakhono ayisisekelo eziwadingayo ukuze ziwafunde kamuva ngemisebenzi esekelwe ekudlaleni nolwazi?
Izingane ezithola imfundo ye-ECD esezingeni, amathuba abamaningi okuba zibe nemiphumela engcono ezifundweni, emakhonweni okuqonda, nasekuthuthukisweni komphakathi-ngokomzwelo, njengokuzilawula okungcono, ukuxazulula izinkinga, namakhono okuxhumana.
Imfundo yasekuqaleni esezingeni eliphezulu ingasiza ekugcwaliseni izikhala zempumelelo futhi yandise amathuba emfundo ephakeme kamuva ekuphileni.
Lezi ezinye zezimpawu ezijwayelekile ezingakusiza ukuthi ubone ukuthi isikhungo se-ECD sisebenza kahle futhi siyahlangabezana nazo zonke izindlela ezifanele:
- Abasebenzi abaqeqeshiwe nabaqeqeshiwe: Bheka izikhungo ezinothisha nabasebenzi abanokuqeqeshwa okufanele, izitifiketi, kanye nolwazi lwemfundo yezingane.
- Indawo ephephile nehlanzekile: Qinisekisa ukuthi isikhungo sinendawo ephephile, ehlanzekile, nenakekelwa kahle ekhuthaza impilo nokuphila kwezingane.
- Imisebenzi ehambisana neminyaka yobudala kanye nezinto zokwakha: Hlola ukuthi isikhungo sihlinzeka ngemisebenzi ehlukahlukene ehambisana neminyaka yobudala nezinto ezisetshenziswayo ezisekela ukukhula kwezingane ngokomzimba, kwezenhlalo, ngokomzwelo, nangokomqondo.
- Ukusebenzisana okuhle nobudlelwano: Bheka indlela othisha nabasebenzi abaxhumana ngayo nezingane nokuthi bayanikeza yini ukusebenzelana okusekelayo nokukhuthazayo.
- Ukuxhumana nemindeni: Isikhungo esihle se-ECD kufanele sibe nokuxhumana okuvulekile nemindeni, siyigcine inolwazi mayelana nokukhula nenqubekelaphambili yengane yayo.
- Ukuhlola nokuhlolwa okuvamile: Isikhungo kufanele sihlole njalo futhi sihlole inqubekelaphambili yezingane ukuze siqinisekise ukuthi zisendleleni yezinyathelo zazo zokukhula.
Uma ingane ihamba esikhungweni Izikhungo Zokuthuthukiswa Kwezingane Ezincane (ECD) esisezingeni kungaba nezinzuzo eziningi ekukhuleni kwengane, njengokuthuthukisa ukulangazelela kwayo ukufunda, amakhono omphakathi, ukuzethemba, nesikhathi sokunaka, kanye nokukhuthaza uzwela, ukusungula izinto, kanye nokusebenzisana.
Ungasikhethela kanjani-ke isikhungo sokuthuthukiswa kwengane yakho (ECD) esifanele?
Okokuqala kufanele unqume izidingo zakho nezinto eziza kuqala, ucabangele iminyaka yengane yakho, indlela yokufunda, nanoma yiziphi izidingo ezikhethekile okungenzeka inazo.
Isinyathelo esilandelayo kungaba ukucwaninga nokuqhathanisa izikhungo. Bheka izikhungo ezihlangabezana nezidingo zakho nezinto ezibalulekile futhi uqhathanise ukunikezwa kwazo, indawo, izindleko, namahora okusebenza.
Khumbula ukuhlola ukugunyazwa okuvela enhlanganweni eyaziwayo yemfundo yezingane ezincane, njengoba lokhu kukhombisa ukuthi bayahlangabezana namazinga athile ekhwalithi.
Uma usunohlu olufushane, vakashela isikhungo. Hlela ukuvakasha ukuze ubuke indawo ezungezile, ukusebenzelana kwabasebenzi nezingane, kanye nemisebenzi nezinto ezitholakalayo. Ungesabi ukubuza imibuzo ngesikhathi sokuvakasha kwakho mayelana nekharikhulamu yesikhungo, izinqubomgomo, nezinqubo zokuqinisekisa ukuthi zihambisana nalokho okulindele.
Ukuthola impendulo emindenini enezingane ezifunda esikhungweni nakho kuyindlela enhle yokuthola ukuthi leso sikhungo se-ECD singawufanela yini umndeni wakho. Okubaluleke kakhulu, themba imizwelo yakho. Khetha isikhungo ozizwa ukhululekile ngaso futhi okholelwa ukuthi sizokunikeza okuhlangenwe nakho okuhle enganeni yakho.
Ngokulandela lezi zinyathelo, ungakhetha isikhungo se-ECD esifanele ingane yakho futhi uqinisekise ukuthi ithola isiqalo esingcono kakhulu ohambweni lwayo lokufunda.
