If my child needs additional support in pre-school.
Access and Inclusion Model
The Better Start Access and Inclusion Model (AIM) is a model of supports designed to ensure that children with disabilities can access the Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programme.
The model does not require a formal diagnosis of disability.
On the AIM website, parents and pre-school providers can access up to date information on the AIM programme, the supports offered and how to apply.
Visit www.aim.gov.ie.
