No child left behind.

Assalamualaikum WBT. Early Childhood Education in Sarawak is being implemented by different Federal Agencies and private sector. SeDidik has played an important role in providing access to early education and childcare to the community in Sarawak starting in 1991.

Based on the long experience that SeDidik has in delivering ECCE and driven by Sarawak Government’s desire to improve the access, equity and quality of Early Childhood Education, the acquisition of SeDidik by the Sarawak Government through SFS Inc. has been a strategic move by our State Government to achieve access, equity and quality in ECCE in Sarawak.

Early childhood care and education (ECCE) is more than preparation for primary school or formal schooling, as it focuses on holistic development, catering to a child’s social, emotional, cognitive, and physical needs to build a solid and broad foundation for a quality human capital. It is the basic right of every child to have access to preschool education. Preschool education lays foundation for character building through experiential learning. In early childhood education, fun learning is of essence, enriching curiosity and creativity and love for lifelong learning.

ECCE is one of the best investments a nation can make to promote human resource development, gender equality and social cohesion, and to reduce the costs for later intervention and remedial programmes.

Under the Ministry of Women, Early Childhood and Community Wellbeing Development, SeDidik is now focused on integrating efforts to provide access and equity to inclusive quality ECCE apart from developing professionalism amongst teachers for effective, efficient and relevant ECCE services.

Every child is important. No child should be left behind and each one is our priority for they are our state greatest asset. Thank you.

Assalamualaikum WBT. Realizing the significance of ECCE to the development of human capital in Sarawak, our former Chief Minister of Sarawak, Tun Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud has inspired the idea of creating Sarawak’s own early childhood education entity.

SeDidik was then established in 1990 under 6th Malaysia Plan. SeDidik’s first pilot project centre in 1990 is TADIKA SeDidik Buntal, which is located at a fishing village of Kampung Buntal Kuching.

On 27th July 2020, SeDidik was officially handed over to the Sarawak Government, through the Ministry of Women, Early Childhood and Community Wellbeing Development.

As an ECCE institution that has been in the industry since 1991, SeDidik continuously striving to provide latest information, quality services and attending to website visitor’s feedback in order to improve our services overtime.

Rapid growth that occurs globally combined with advancements in ICT has also made us aware of the change. As an Early Childhood Education and Care institution that emphasizes on quality and productivity, fast, accurate and up-to-date information is essential to further improve our delivery of quality services to the target group.

We welcome the community to join us in strengthening the potential in programmes and activities involving children, families and the society.

Hence, my hopes are high that our website can be used as a platform in line with our current needs to constantly get connected to the community. Providing the best quality services to the community is our priority.
