Early Childhood | National Quality StandardResearch shows that a child’s experience in their first five years sets the course for the rest of their life. To ensure that Australian children get the best possible start, the introduction of a National Quality Framework has been agreed by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG).
The National Quality Framework will put in place a new National Quality Standard to ensure high quality and consistent early childhood education and care across Australia. This standard covers both nutrition and physical activity under the 2nd Quality Area: Children's Health and Safety.
National Quality Standard - Quality Area 2: Children's Health and Safety
Services will be assessed against the new National Quality Standard from January 2010, with a transition phase from July 2010 where services will begin to undergo assessment against the new standard. |
