Open Access

Abstract

As part of a master's thesis on "Preschool Curriculum in the Swedish Preschool Education System" that challenged my research of preschool curriculum with my stay in Gothenburg (Sweden), as a preschool educator at Krumeluren 6 förskola Kindergarten. My goal is to give a complete picture of the important aspects of the preschool curriculum in Sweden as a quality model in the preschool education system.The preschool curriculum (Skulverket) in Sweden is designed to promote positive growth and development in the lives of all children, a holistic approach, to develop their social, physical, emotional and intellectual abilities. We know that every child is unique, and the special and positive experiences from early childhood are important for the overall development of the child in later life. The preschool curriculum in Sweden provides high quality education and care for children in a safe, respected and inclusive environment that builds a foundation for lifelong learning.Keywords: preschool curriculum, preschool education, preschool institutions, lifelong learning, democracy.
