Operational improvement + quality elevation — with a clear path to ECRA accreditation.
Arabian Child supports nurseries, preschools, and school Early Years divisions to improve quality, strengthen systems, and drive enrollment performance. We deliver practical implementation support across leadership, operations, environment, workforce, and curriculum. This work can be delivered as a full improvement program, or as targeted support against priority gaps.
What “improvement support” actually covers
Centers typically engage us for combinations of: enrollment & admissions systems, curriculum planning and classroom practice, teaching approaches and routines, environment redesign, management systems & SOPs, workforce & HR foundations, safeguarding/health & safety compliance, and training/CPD planning — with ECRA as the measurement and accountability framework.
A structured implementation cycle
- Diagnose: baseline audit + gap map (operations, classrooms, evidence).
- Plan: prioritized roadmap with owners, timelines, and KPIs.
- Implement: coaching + tools + staff enablement across the center.
- Validate: evidence pack + mock readiness + next-step plan.
Business Growth & Enrollment Systems
Admissions journey design, lead handling SOPs, tour scripts, follow-up sequences, and KPI tracking to improve inquiry-to-enrollment conversion.
ECRA Accreditation Support
Self-evaluation setup, evidence preparation, improvement tracking, environment & interaction audit, readiness visits, and full accreditation support.
Academic Quality + Classroom Practice
Curriculum planning systems, observation tools, play-based practice standards, behavior guidance, daily routines, and coaching/modeling where needed.
Environment & Facility Design
Classroom zoning and learning center standards, equipment lists, wall display standards, outdoor safety standards, and model classroom setup.
Operations, HR, and Compliance
Policies & SOPs, standard forms, dashboards, staffing structures, onboarding, supervision standards, safeguarding, emergency procedures, and compliance routines.
Training & Professional Development
Pre-service training, termly PD calendars, LearnPro (optional), monthly PD through partner programs, and skills-focused microtraining aligned to observed gaps.
