Culturally relevant resources
Partnering with the Secretariat of National Aboriginal and Islander Child Care (SNAICC), the NSW Department of Education has developed a suite of culturally specific resources aimed to provide ongoing guidance and reference for services when implementing the National Quality Framework into daily practice.
The culturally specific resources include factsheets and videos that review and consider the National Quality Framework in a way that is more relevant to staff at services which provide education and care to Aboriginal children and provide support to these children?s families and their communities.
