Every child deserves a Smart Start

Since 2014, Smart Start has been at the forefront of the fight for universal access to quality early learning for all Australian children.

We know that early learning is so vital to a 
child's development for so many reasons:

  • 80% of a child’s brain development occurs by the time they turn five.

  • High quality early learning means a smarter start and better outcomes for life.

  • Children start school better prepared for learning and life.

For the sector to deliver these benefits, we need government support to ensure:

  • Affordable early learning 
and care for all children 
and families.

  • For all children to have access to high quality early learning.

  • Professionally recognised and better paid Teachers and Educators.
