On 7 September 2020, an agreement was signed between the PAP Community Foundation (PCF) and National Institute of Education to launch the Certificate in Early Childhood Curriculum Leadership programme, starting February 2021. This is the Institute’s first tie-up with PCF on curriculum development.

More than 400 centre leaders and curriculum specialists from PCF Sparkletots are expected to attend the four-month programme, to be conducted by the Institute with sponsorship by PCF. The programme aims to deepen participants’ expertise in designing and implementing changes in the curriculum for early childhood education.
