The function of education legislation in early childhood education (ECE) management is examined in this systematic literature review, with an emphasis on how it affects teacher management, educational quality, and equity. The evaluation highlights how legislative frameworks influence ECE practices, guaranteeing inclusive education, teacher development, and the protection of children's rights. It is based on 27 papers from Scopus and Web of Science (2016-2025). Key findings demonstrate that education law promotes equal access to high-quality education for children from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds by establishing minimum criteria for facilities, curricula, teacher qualifications, and student safety. Additionally, it promotes teacher development by controlling training, evaluation, and remuneration. There are still issues, nevertheless, such as unequal resource allocation, inconsistent policy execution, and obstacles to education for underrepresented groups. In order to better understand the efficacy of legal frameworks in various educational contexts, the review emphasizes the significance of comprehensive education legislation in ECE administration and urges future research to use longitudinal and cross-cultural designs.
