Exceeding The Standard

December 5, 2023

We are so thrilled to announce that Grace Village Early Learning Centre (ELC) has reached a new milestone in its childcare services, with the centre now recognised as “Exceeding National Quality Standard” under the esteemed National Quality Framework (NQF).

Setting us apart on the national landscape of children’s education and care facilities across Australia, this prestigious standard is measured by individual state or territory regulatory authorities conducting thorough assessments against seven key quality areas of the NQS, awarding ratings for each domain and an overall score.

Teaching Director, Amanda Harris explains: “An ‘Exceeding NQS’ rating signifies that a service surpasses expectations within at least four out of these seven distinct fields.”

The conception and execution of NQF were unanimous decisions by all Australian governments to enhance educational outcomes and holistic development for children enrolled in care services. Its administration lies under the vigilant watch of The Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority (ACECQA).
