Children’s Evaluation Period

ENROLLMENT EVALUATION PERIOD

The first month of enrollment in a TOPP KIDS program is an evaluation period. During this time program staff observe how a child is integrating into the program. They monitor the child’s behaviour, compare observations, and communicate any concerns or difficulties observed with parents / guardians. Program Coordinators will make a recommendation to parents / guardians at the end of the evaluation period as to whether the program is suitable. Program Coordinators will recommend that the child continue with TOPP KIDS, if a Support Aide is needed (mandatory if requested by the Program Coordinator) or terminate care and suggest alternative / supportive program options within the community.
