Congratulations to Green Point Discovery Early Learning Cen­tre who have just achieved an ‘Exceeding the National Quali­ty Standard’ rating. Centre Director, Kellie Bruce, said “The Green Point team have worked consistently and pas­sionately to achieve such an outstanding outcome.”

To be granted an ‘Exceeding’ rating, an early childhood service must be assessed by the Australian Children’s Educa­tion & Care Quality Authority (ACECQA), and show excel­lence in the seven national quality areas that make up the National Quality Standards (NQS).

Tasmania’s regulatory authority found that Green Point goes beyond the require­ments of the NQS. Green Point achieved an Exceeding NQS rating in aspects of the seven areas, with a focus on family relationships and inclusive community engagement.

“We have tremendously dedicated educators working at our Green Point Service, and achieving an exceeding rating only reaffirms the value of their ongoing hard work to deliver excellence in early childhood education every day,” said Kellie.

The ACECQA Assessor said, “The service is commended on its achievements in providing quality outcomes for children. Educators demonstrated meaningful and regular en­gagement with families and the community to promote strong connections between each child’s learning environments.

“Educators consistently includ­ed the voices and views of chil­dren and families, to develop a child-centred educational pro­gram that enhanced children’s learning and development.”

Congratulations to the Green Point team!
