ECE needs nationalisation - Child Poverty Action Group

From Morning Report, 7:40 am on 16 July 2020

The Child Poverty Action Group says Early Childhood Education needs to be nationalised.

A new report by CPAG shows that an increase in for-profit providers has had a detrimental impact on the quality of care.

Families in low-socio economic areas are hit hardest as they cannot access high quality care because of rising fees.

Janfrie Wakim is the Deputy Convenor for the Child Poverty Action Group.
