Information about the School Readiness Program
School Readiness Program
The School Readiness program is an initiative of the Department of Education and Training (DET) for providers of 3 and 4 year old kindergarten services. It is a capacity-building program that supports teachers, educators and families in their work with children through a coaching and training model. The School Readiness Program acknowledges that children’s early learning experiences are crucial to their success in later life and that educators build and shape those skills that will see children flourish.
