Early Childhood Australia

Early Childhood Australia (ECA) has been a voice for young children since 1938.  ECA advocates to ensure quality, social justice and equity in all issues relating to the education and care of children aged birth to eight years.

The Australian Early Years Learning Framework's (EYLF)  current research with early childhood practitioners and their emerging identities as intentional teachers. Central to practitioners’ struggles is navigating relationships between intentionality, required documentation in the form of outcomes, and the different approaches encountered during outdoor and indoor environments. The role of the intentional teacher requires careful consideration, balancing an intentional curriculum that acknowledges the rights of children’s active participation within the teaching/learning nexus.




Noteworthy information about this website was that it has so many resources for parents as well as teachers. There is a shop for books and resources for teachers and parents.

  2. Hi Maria, I also picked this website. I enjoyed it a lot especially the learning hub and parents resources. I like that the learning Hub was not only for parents but also us as educator.
