Have your say - early childhood education and care

The Early Childhood Education Regulatory Review is looking at the regulatory systems for education, health, safety, child protection, food safety, buildings, and workplaces as they apply to the early childhood sector. This review is not looking at funding of the ECE sector.

This review will help make sure that the rules are good for everyone and make economic sense, saving time and improving outcomes for children.

By giving us your feedback you can help us identify the areas we need to consider as part of this work.

Please choose the appropriate category below that best applies to you.  You may be someone who fits into more than one of these categories - for instance a parent of a child in ECE who is also an ECE teacher.  If this is you, you are welcome to make submissions through however many categories apply to you.
