States collect ECE data, but they are uncoordinated, often incomplete, and therefore cannot effectively support continuous improvement efforts. Not only are states unable to answer critical policy questions about their states’ public ECE systems, but policymakers often struggle to obtain answers to basic questions. How does your state compare?.
The goal of Pennsylvania's Office of Child Development and Early Learning is to regularly assess the development of children from birth to age 5 who receive state-funded early childhood services. Early childhood education and care providers collect child information across seven developmental domains using a researchbased, authentic assessment aligned with the state's early learning standards.
