Abstract : This paper is focused on the perspectives of teachers from a rural early childhood care and education (ECCE) school on the outskirts of the capital city, Georgetown, Guyana during the COVID-19 pandemic. More specifically, Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory is applied to challenges in the operationalisation of online learning and social development issues impacting children aged 3 to four 4 years old across multiple levels of surrounding environments (the microsystem, the mesosystem, the exosystem, the macrosystem, and the chronosystem) from immediate settings of family and school to broader cultural values. The study used a qualitative interpretive approach with focus group interviews and semi-structured questionnaires to obtain in-depth perspectives. Findings revealed that interventions to promote children’s social development in early childhood online learning in the Covid-19 era require cohesive family -school interconnected relationships supported by the government's role in policy reforms initiatives.
