Early childhood education research boosted

Early childhood education research boosted

Research into best practice teaching methods for early childhood education is to be boosted by six new 'Centers of Innovation' for $2.1 million over three years. This is good news says Matt Robson, Progressive Deputy Leader.


"Early childhood education is a key part of ensuring our children get the best start possible in life. More research into best practice in teaching our young children is certainly an important contribution to helping both teachers and children get the best out of early childhood education.


"This is one step in the right direction to ensuring our investment in education is being used to maximum advantage. The Progressives want universal access to quality early childhood education. This move by the Labour Progressive government is a welcome step in the right direction," Matt Robson MP said.
