2023 Policy and Funding Member Forum
The Department of Education and Training have released policy and funding guidance for the 2023 rollout of three-year-old kindergarten. The aim of the continued expansion is to provide access to kindergarten to as many children as possible. Flexible hours will be introduced state-wide in 2023, allowing providers scope to determine how many hours — between five and 15 per week — of funded three- year-old kindergarten they offer.
To support members to understand the new requirements, ELAA will be holding a member forum on Friday 25 March from 1.30 – 3.00pm.
The information session will be in two parts:
| 1.30 – 2.30pm | 2023 Policy and Funding Plan overview followed by questions and answer session | Bronwen Fitzgerald, Executive Director, Kindergarten Reform and Implementation, DET
|
| 2.30 – 3.00pm | Potential timetabling models | Katrina Nightingale, Senior Advisor – Member Solutions, ELAA
