KIKO: Quality Inspiring Preschool Education

In short

KIKO stands for Quality Inspiring Preschool Education and focuses on strengthening teaching practices in preschool classrooms. This project supports teachers in creating a rich learning environment that combines play-based learning with targeted didactics.

Need and relevance

Preschool education lays the foundation for children’s academic and cognitive development. However, teachers often struggle to balance playful and structured learning. KIKO provides research-based insights and practical tools to enhance the quality of preschool education, with attention to differentiation and student engagement.

From approach to impact

KIKO collaborates with teachers and education experts to develop and test inspiring teaching practices. Through workshops, coaching, and practice-based research, we help schools create a powerful learning environment. The results of this project will lead to concrete guidelines and materials that can be widely applied in preschool education.
