Literal question
Does (name) attend any organised learning or early childhood education programme, such as a private or public facility, including kindergarten or a child care centre in the community?
Interviewer instructions
This question aims to find out if the child is participating in early learning activities. Baby-sitting or child-minding, even if done in a special place such as a day-care centre, does not qualify as such a programme unless it includes organized learning activities. You must ensure that the mother or primary caretaker understands the meaning of 'Early Childhood Education Programme', explaining it as instructed.
