Children in Earl Childhood Care and Development are divided into three categories which are infants, toddlers, and 3-4 years old children. Early Childhood Care and Development Education (ECCD) in Malaysia are divided into three age groups, which is 0-4 years, 4-6 years and 7-8 years old.
The first group (0-4 years) comes under the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development (MWFCD) which coordinates national programmes on the growth and development of children. Through its Department of Social Welfare, MWFCD keeps a register of all childcare (also known as TASKA) in the country.
Pre-school education for the second group (4-6 years) comes under three ministries/agencies, i.e. the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development, and the National Unity Department. Primary school for the third group (7-8 years) comes under the Ministry of Education.
