Goals & Guides
DESIRED RESULTS DEVELOPMENTAL
The goal of Learners Academy Plus is to ensure that all children are making progress in the
domains of physical, cognitive, and social-emotional development
- We use the Guidelines and rules of SUTQ (Step Up To Quality) as a Desired Results Developmental Profile, a tool given to us by Ohio Job and Family Services, Child Development Division, to assess the development of children.
- Children are assessed within 30 days of enrollment and every three months thereafter.
- Parents’ input is a necessary component of this assessment.
- The assessment is also used to plan and conduct age and developmentally appropriate activities for the children.
