Educational process in the appropriate period is paramount to define a better academic profile of young people in the future.The objective was to validate ELORS scale (Early Learning Observation and Rating Scale) to help educational process,emphasizingcharacteristics that can be early signals of learning deficiencies.Scale was applied to parents of 2 public schools and 2 private schools (N=57 students). Results of reliability using Cronbach’s alpha were as follows: Perceptual and Motor (0.916), Self-management (0.896), Social？and Emotional (0.893), Early Mathematics (0.956), Early Literacy (0.955), Receptive？Language (0.943) and Expressive Language (0.948). When evaluated the differences between private and public schools, we found significant data？in the Domain 2 in the behavior and mood consistency (p = 0.008); Domain 3 in functioning regardless of adult care (p = 0.006); Domain 4 in naming numbers (p = 0.026), counting in the appropriate sequence (p = 0.035), counting？objects with precision (p = 0.026), determining which of the two groups of objects has more or less objects (p = 0.017), determining which object comes next in a sequence (0.
