Abstract

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, public/private early childhood education and care (ECEC) organisations, stakeholders and professionals are still working on promoting the importance of early childhood education and care in general, considering that the enrolment of children in a preschool institution is still an important goal for the future. Social and emotional skills (SES) learning is not a priority for future strategic development of ECEC. In official legislation, the term of programme for socioemotional learning cannot be found. Activities related to SES are a part of learning outcomes for preschool education development. There are no systematic approaches or programmes related to SES learning in preschool institutions at a national or local level. An additional problem presents further adaptation of the national policies by the 10 cantons in Federation, Republic of Srpska and Brčko District, which results in their implementation in a different way.
