Accreditation

The National Childcare Accreditation Council (NCAC) provides childcare services with a framework with which to measure ourselves against, by defining quality in long day care. This framework aims to provide children throughout Australia with high quality care that promotes their learning and development.

Staff assess their practises through the Quality Improvement and Accreditation System (QIAS). Improvement plans are developed to ensure the Centre is always improving in the areas of:

Quality Area 1
Staff Relationships with Children and Peers
Quality Area 2
Partnerships with Families
Quality Area 3
Programming and Evaluation
Quality Area 4
Children’s Experiences and Learning
Quality Area 5
Protective Care and Safety
Quality Area 6
Health, Nutrition and Wellbeing
Quality Area 7
Managing to Support Quality
