Applications are now open for NSW ECEC services to improve their facilities and offering

The New South Wales Government has opened applications for the revamped Quality and Participation Grants to support eligible early childhood education and care (ECEC) services to improve learning environments, increase community outreach and meet costs associated with implementing recent reforms.

 

$21 million has been allocated to the Quality and Participation Grants program to support eligible services by giving them up to $15,000 to purchase equipment, undertake outdoor renovations and improve learning resources and materials.  

 

“The Quality and Participation Grants help services increase access and participation for vulnerable children, and improve learning environments to lift the experiences of all children,” said NSW Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning Sarah Mitchell.  

 

Applications for the Quality and Participation Grants are open now and close on 14 November 2022. To learn more about the program, please see here.
