Additional Staffing Requirement From 1 January 2020

From 1 January 2020, providers of long day care services & preschools/kindergartens will need to have a second early childhood teacher or, alternatively, a ‘suitably qualified person’ in attendance when 60 or more children preschool age or under are being educated & cared for. Services located in NSW are unaffected by these changes, as additional ECT staffing requirements have been in place for several years. More Information.
