The Little Schoolhouse Kindergarten & Preschool
Bragg Creek Education Services Association
(BCESA)
Services and Early Interventions
Bragg Creek Education Services Association (BCESA) partners with preschools, daycares and dayhomes to administer Alberta Education funding for children who have been identified with a variety of learning needs. The BCESA currently provides services in Calgary, Springbank, Bragg Creek, and Banff/Canmore.
The Little Schoolhouse offers extra programming, free of charge, for funded children. Check with the classroom teacher to see if you child qualifies for services and this extra programming.
Program Unit Funding (PUF)
Program Unit Funding is available to children who have been identified with severe delays and require support within their learning environment. PUF is available for a maximum of three years. The child must be registered in and be attending a preschool, daycare or community program that offers a minimum of 475 hours for the school year.
Mild/Moderate (MM) Funding
This level of funding provides services for children with mild to moderate delays in one area such as speech or motor development. This funding is available for a maximum of two years, one of which must be the child’s kindergarten year.
Children receive a multi-disciplinary team who will work in the classroom on developmentally appropriate learning goals, in consultation with teachers, parents and teaching assistants.
