# of children enrolled in ECCD centres, safe spaces and other learning spaces with improved safety of the learning space

Children enrolled in ECCD centres, safe spaces, and any other learning space where Save the Children or a partner supported by Save the Children (with funds or substantial technical assistance) supported the school/learning space to improve its safety. This may be through training, technical assistance, and funding, and may include support for some activities described in the Safe Schools Common Approach adapted to ECCD.

Calculation: # of ECCD centre supported for safety improvements multiplied by # of children enrolled in the ECCD centre.

Data collection: # of ECCD centres collected from project lists. Take enrollment registers where SC is providing the ECCD centre. For government ECCD centres, the number enrolled may be collected via summary forms from visits to local government offices or ECCD centres or e-mail requests for enrolment data from the same.

Source: project lists of supported ECCD centres; enrollment records from projects or local government.

Who to collect: Project Coordinators and Managers. This should not be left only to MEAL colleagues. This is basic monitoring done as part of project management.

How to count aggregate: report on the gender, disability, and age, etc., disaggregation from enrollment records where available. Take care to count the enrolled population of ECCD centres only once - ensure that you have at least an estimate of UNIQUE children. Take care to ensure that the ECCD centre has actually been supported in the reporting period before including its enrollment data. The number actually supported may be different from the number on the project list of the targeted ECCD centre.
