Its official! Treasurer @JEChalmers has confirmed that the 2024 Budget will include provision for funding a much deserved wage increase for early childhood educators. @goodstartel CEO @RosBaxter says this is great news for a sector facing workforce shortages because of low pay.

Heard about $10 a day childcare in Quebec? ECEC in NSW is higher quality (more qualified staff & better paid), more accessible (more places) and still <$10 a day for 40% of children on lower incomes. Full report below goodstart.org.au/news/compar…

Media release from @GoodStartel welcoming today's @acccgovau final report on ECEC.
Every child deserves access to quality early learning. That's why we welcome the findings of the @acccgovau ECEC report. Families face many challenges in finding affordable, high-quality care but together, we can ensure every child has access to the learning they need to thrive.
Our final Childcare Inquiry report has recommended the Government consider a mix of regulatory measures including a market stewardship role and the use of supply-side subsidies to improve childcare affordability and accessibility for all households. bit.ly/3UiUkUO
Goodstart Early Learning centres are delighted to purchase Victorian products with the Victorian Governments ‘Educational Toys & Equipment’ grant to support children's play based learning.
