Iowa Quality Preschool Program Standards Revision | Department of Education Iowa Quality Preschool Program Standards Revision Proposed IQPPS 2025-26 Revision Public Forum set for IQPPS 2025-26 Revision Review Team Meeting Dates & Agendas The Iowa Department of Education Early Childhood Bureau is charged with revising the current Iowa Quality Preschool Program Standards.
Once the initial revision is complete, an external review team will be selected. The goal of the external IQPPS Review Team will be to provide recommendations to the Department. This team serves in an advisory capacity to the Department.
Program standards are reviewed regularly to ensure the content aligns with current research and best practices. The implementation of program standards are part of an on-going and continuous improvement effort for districts and programs. Districts and programs routinely review the preschool program policies, procedures, and data to assure the programs are meeting criteria.
In doing so, this creates an accountability measure to support quality learning opportunities and environments for Iowa learners. The Department will seek public input on the proposed changes. Stakeholder feedback and recommendations will be considered for a final draft.
The final standards proposal will go before the State Board of Education for consideration. If adopted, the revised Iowa Quality Preschool Program Standards will be an approved set of program standards for state-funded preschool programs.
