FCP1: Program shows how it gives information to families about children’s individual developmental progress.
Relationships between staff and families are an essential piece of high quality care and education. When staff considers families to be a partner in the work, strong home and school bonds are created, supporting long-term development and success. Strong relationships between staff and families help build connections, develop knowledge, and create collaboration between home and school. When thinking about ways to share information with families, consider implementing the following:
- Take child development records and notes on the children
- Share information about the child’s development during conferences
- Communicate and collaborate with families about their child’s development ( through any format such as through an app, face to face, during a conference, etc.)
- Engage families in goal setting
This indicator requires that you upload two (2) or more different pieces of evidence showing high-quality practices. Some common examples of high-quality evidence a program might upload could include:
- Completed child development records/notes
- Completed conference forms with child development notes
- Policy for conferences
- Process for communication and collaboration with families on child’s development
- Written communication with families on child’s development
To best show how developmental information is shared with families, you will want to upload different types of evidence such as completed developmental records/notes and a policy about conferences.
For more information about this indicator, review the Quality Indicators Guidance Document and Quality Indicators FAQ.
