Early Childhood Education and Care

Early Childhood Education and Care needs to be accessible, appropriate and affordable for families who live in rural and remote areas. This includes the provision of recognised early childhood distance education programs where there is no reasonable access to an education centre and flexible child care appropriate to families’ needs. The unique needs of geographically isolated families need to be recognised and programs established which address the unique disadvantages associated with caring for and educating children in geographically isolated locations.
