Updated learning frameworks now in force

This content was published on Monday 5 February 2024. There may be more recent updates available.

The updated approved learning frameworks are now in operation for the early childhood education and care sector.  

There are 2 national approved learning frameworks under the National Quality Framework:

  • Belonging, Being and Becoming: The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia
  • My Time, Our Place: Framework for School Age Care in Australia.

The frameworks guide early childhood teachers and educators in the design, delivery and evaluation of quality learning and development.

In 2023, ACECQA released updated versions of the frameworks. Both versions of each framework were available throughout 2023 to help you transition.

If you haven’t already, you are required to transition to the updated frameworks.

Read the updated frameworks and access resources to help you implement them on the ACECQA website.
