Guidelines and Nomination Form - Prime Minister's Awards for Excellence in Early Childhood Education 2007-2008

The early years of children's lives are critical. The educators who teach and nurture young children in those years have an impact that will last for the rest of the children's lives. For most children, at least one educator will stand out as someone who encouraged, enabled and inspired them to be their very best when they were very young. The Prime Minister's Awards for Excellence in Early Childhood Education honour outstanding and innovative early childhood educators who excel at fostering the early development and socialization of the children in their care, and at helping build the foundation children need to meet life's challenges.
