The Malvern School Director of Educational Programs, Christle Seal, publishes article in Childcare Exchange Magazine
If there is one underlying lesson our ultra-personalized world drives home, it is that one size does not fit all. The products we use, the clothes we wear, the media we consume—it is all increasingly tailored to specific wants and needs.

To be clear, unlike the personalization of consumer goods and services, individualized learning is not the brainchild of sales and marketing. It also is not an entirely new concept or just the flavor of the week. An individualized approach to early childhood curriculum, whereby teachers design curriculum plans explicitly around the developmental skills and focus areas of the specific children in their classes, is rooted in research and can make a significant impact on children’s development.
