A message from Circle of Security International expressing the delightful curricula COSC brings to Early Childhood Services 💙🩷💛

The COSC Approach does not add one more curriculum to a pile of what teachers have already been trained to implement.

That's because the COS Classroom Coaching is not meant to replace classroom curriculum, but rather build the foundation for learning itself:
“The curriculum of Circle of Security marries beautifully with the other curriculum, social-emotional support, requirements, and initiatives we’re always putting out. Circle of Security just provided another layer that fits in beautifully and actually enhanced the work we were already doing and the things we were already asking of teachers.”�
