AIM stands for the “Access and Inclusion Model”. The AIM model ensures all children, regardless of disability can full take part in mainstream pre-school. AIM helps pre-schools create an inclusive environment and provides supports to children to meaningfully participate in ECCE, the two-year state funded pre-school programme.

AIM provides universal and targeted supports to pre-school settings that focus on the needs of the individual child. AIM is a Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (DCEDIDY) initiative, administered by Pobal and Better Start AIM.
