A reminder that the next Australian Early Development Census (AEDC) data collection is coming up in Term 2.

The data collection will commence on 4 May and close on 25 June, 2021. Catholic schools have a record 100 per cent participation rate with survey instruments completed for all prep children in the previous data collections. 

Participation in the survey is extremely valuable as it provides individual School Profiles which can help schools plan for the needs of children arriving at their school and provide a catalyst to assist schools to develop productive relationships with providers of early childhood services in their community.
