Abstract The period of early childhood education (ECE) is crucial in shaping a child's future, as it forms the basis for later academic performance and social skills. In recognition of this importance, various governments have launched numerous ECE programs and policies designed to enhance the learning experiences of young children. However, understanding the perspectives of parents on these programs and policies is vital to ensure their efficacy and relevance in practice. his study aims to explore parental perspectives on ECE schemes and policy relevance and impact in Tirupati municipality. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining both quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis methods. A survey questionnaire was administered to 50 parents of children aged 3-6 years, enrolled in ECE programs. The data was collected by using simple random sampling technique. The study revealed that parents have a poor knowledge of ECE schemes and policies, recognizing their importance in supporting children's early learning and development. However, parents also identified several challenges. The study also highlighted the need for greater parental involvement in ECE policy development and implementation. This study provides valuable insights into parental perspectives on ECE schemes and policy relevance and impact. The findings have implications for policymakers, educators, and practitioners, highlighting the need for more effective collaboration and communication with parents to ensure that ECE schemes and policies meet the needs of young children and their families.
