Early childhood webinar - 2020 Review of the Disability Standards for Education 2005

This webinar is the fourth and final in our series for the 2020 Review (the Review) of the Disability Standards for Education 2005 (the Standards).

It is for parents of young children who have been in or may be entering early childhood education and care and educators in the early childhood education and care sector. 

The interactive webinar will involve:

• an introduction by Department of Education, Skills and Employment about the Review
• a presentation of key themes of the Review including considerations for early childhood education and care
• the opportunity for you to answer questions live during the webinar to provide your input to the review process.

A separate early childhood education and care discussion paper relating to the Standards will soon be available on our Consultation Hub.

Background

The Standards help to make sure students with disability can participate in education and training. This supports people with disability to be able to participate fully in society and have more opportunities throughout their life. 

The Standards are being reviewed in 2020 through a consultation process. The Review will ask whether the Standards are doing their job, and if not, how they could be improved. 

More information about the Review is available on our Consultation Hub.
