The EDI (Early Development Instrument) is used to monitor children's developmental health at school entry. Children are assessed in the 5 EDI developmental domains: Physical Health & Well-Being, Social Competence, Emotional Maturity, Language & Cognitive Development and Communication Skills & General Knowledge.

Finally, we will look at how we use the EDI data for system planning and knowledge mobilization.
