Abstract:
This study aims to evaluate the current competence of preschool teachers in preventing childhood diseases in Vietnam and provide recommendations for their development in effectively addressing these issues. The research employed consulting methods, including telephone and email consultations, as well as a Google Form questionnaire. The questionnaire utilized a 5-level rating scale (Good, Fair, Average, Weak, Poor). The study involved 25 administrators (Education and Training officers, Kindergarten Principals, and Vice Principals) and 118 preschool teachers from Lao Cai city, Lao Cai province. The research was conducted from April 2021 to November 2021. Results of the study revealed several limitations in the current ability of preschool teachers to prevent childhood diseases in the study area. These limitations included inadequate competence among certain members of the Board of Education and management staff, particularly the principals. Furthermore, there was incomplete awareness among some management staff and teachers regarding the significance of fostering skills in preventing contagious diseases among Kindergarten teachers. The training activities related to preventing contagious diseases in children for Kindergarten teachers in Lao Cai city and province were also found to be inadequate. The schools predominantly followed an experiential approach rather than a systematic one. Based on the research findings, the study team proposes recommendations for enhancing the competence of preschool teachers in preventing childhood diseases.
