Staff in early childhood education and care in Europe 2022/2023

ECEC staff support children's development, ensure their health and well-being and guide them in their daily routines and activities. The kinds of experiences children have largely depend on the people who are in charge. Highly qualified staff are more likely to use appropriate pedagogical approaches, create stimulating learning environments as well as provide good care and support. High minimum qualification requirements for ECEC staff are also important for raising the status and pay of the professionals who play such a key role.
In many countries, teams of people work together in ECEC rather than a single professional in charge of a whole group of children, as is often the case in primary schools. Some countries have set the same minimum qualification requirement for all staff members: others have varied job profiles and require different qualifications for different positions. In order to account for these different approaches, this report makes a distinction between two broad categories of staff: 'core practitioners' and assistants'.
