Yirran Gumal rated EXCEEDING the National Quality Standards
21 July 2021
Yirran Gumal is one of Council’s newest early learning centres, operating since late October 2020.
Through dedication and a passion for early years learning and education, the Yirran Gumal team has built a strong reputation within the local community, despite the added challenges of opening during a pandemic!
Their hard work has now been recognised by ACECQA (The Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority), with a recent "Assessment and Rating" visit seeing the service awarded an overall rating of EXCEEDING the National Quality Standards. This is a major achievement as less than 10% of all services achieve this high level.
The service was commended for providing quality outcomes for children and establishing a professional learning community that actively welcomes and draws on the strengths of the educators, children, families, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and the local community.
The educators are thrilled with the results and the entire Children's Services team is extremely proud of their achievement.
