A Sector on the Rise: Early Childhood Education

The early childhood education sector in Victoria is undergoing major transformation. Thanks to significant government investment, new opportunities are opening up across the state. Key developments include:

• Free kindergarten for all 3- and 4-year-olds

• The launch of “Pre-Prep” in 2025, which will double the number of funded hours for 4-year-olds
