The National Quality Standard is linked to national learning frameworks which recognise that children learn from birth. Combined, these frameworks outline fundamental components to inform and guide educators in the delivery of nationally consistent and high quality experiences and programs across Australia.

The Early Years Learning Framework – “Belonging, Being and Becoming” and Framework for School Age Care – “My Time Our Place” are essential resources for services implementing the National Quality Standard.
Further information and resources are available on the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) website.
