EDUGATE

Multilingual teaching in early childhood education and care (ECEC) stems from the idea that in a multicultural society, such as Europe, it’s useful for children to learn English or others languages, as a precious resource for their future. In a time of unprecedented economical and social challenges, it’s crucial to give new generations a solid start in life by providing high quality early childhood education and care.
