SINGAPORE – The Early Childhood Development Agency has acknowledged that there was a lapse in its handling of the Woodlands Mart child mismanagement case, and said it is reviewing its systems and processes.
However, the officer failed to immediately remove the teacher from classroom duties, which is the established protocol for cases with clear evidence that a child’s safety is endangered. “During this period, ECDA will also place all pre-schools under Kinderland on close monitoring and conduct more frequent unannounced checks on their classroom management practices.”
The Singaporean woman is accused of committing the offence at the pre-school shortly before 4pm on June 30. ECDA has issued a warning to this educator, whom it did not name, and required her to be placed under close supervision for three months. She must also attend refresher training on child management strategies.
Last Tuesday, it received a report of child mismanagement that had occurred some time around April 2022, when an educator was seen pushing a five-year-old child.
