Introduction

With early childhood education and care services opening up, there is a likelihood of COVID-19 impacting services, and children needing to isolate as close contacts.

We are interested in the extent of this issue at present – including how many children have needed to isolate on multiple occasions.

Your feedback will help us to understand the impact of COVID-19 on children’s attendance, and potential cost implications of this for families and services if children are withdrawn, or fees waived.

We will use your feedback to inform our advocacy to Government on support needed for all children to remain enrolled given the ongoing impact of COVID-19.
