What can be done to create more effective transitions from birth to Year 12, to support greater continuity of learning and better student outcomes?

Evidence shows that a child-centred approach helps with successful transitions. We spoke to the principal and OSHC coordinator at Kuluin State School about how they approach transitions.

Collaboration between OSHC services and schools enhances continuity of learning and effective transitions. We spoke to the principal and OSHC coordinator at Kuluin State School about how they approach transitions.

Evidence-based intentional teaching can help educators and teachers progress and support children’s learning. It is also important for educators and teachers to incorporate the intentionality of children and their families into their planning for children’s learning.

AERO has partnered with the National Outside School Hours Services Alliance (NOSHSA) to support continuity of learning and development for school-aged children as they move between out of school hours care (OSHC) services and school.

AERO’s ‘science of learning and development’ project will support teachers and educators to incorporate knowledge about how brains and bodies develop into their practice, beginning with early childhood education and care (ECEC) services.

Research, and the evidence it provides, helps educators be more intentional in their practice. It also guides important policy decisions to improve children’s outcomes and life trajectories.

Gabrielle Sinclair, CEO of the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA), provides insight into 'what works' for continuous quality improvement in early childhood education and care.

Our experiences in the early years shape the developing brain, laying foundations for lifelong learning and resilience.

What does evidence look like in an early childhood education and care setting? We’ve spoken to some educators and teachers to explore the many different types of evidence they use in their practice.  

Dr Jen Jackson, Program Director at AERO, explains how simple and effective it is to integrate science into ECEC practice, debunking several myths about the science of early childhood pedagogy along the way.
