Abstract

The present study examined four indicators of quality in preschool programmes, parent involvement, class size, adult:child ratio, and teaching training, as reported by preschool heads parents. Comparisons between the three localities of Hong Kong island, Kowloon and the New Territories showed that the quality of programmes, as measured by these indicators, was less satisfactory in preschools in the New Territories, particularly for parental involvement and teacher training.

摘要

本文根據學前教育的校長和家長的意見，檢示四個學前教育課程質素的指標，分別為父母的參予，班級人數，成人和小童的比例和教師培訓。當比較香港島，九龍和新界三個地區時，顯示新界地區的學前教育的課程質素呈現欠理想的情況，其中尤以父母參予和教師培訓較為顯著。
