The
Whole Leadership Framework can be applied to
early childhood programs serving young children in a variety of
settings: centers, schools, and homes.
The members of our National Council and National Board of Directors are representatives of the
Early Childhood Australia State and Territory branches.The National Board of Directors is required to act in the best interests of the organisation as a
whole and
sets the strategic directions for the organisation.
In partnership with researchers from related projects in Canada, the UK, South Australia, the Northern Territory and Western Australia, Aboriginal organisations and policymakers, we will analyse
whole - of - population data for New South Wales (NSW) to investigate the determinants of positive
early childhood development in Aboriginal children, and assess the impacts of two «real - world» programmes that were implemented under circumstances where evidence of their efficacy was unable to be derived from RCTs: the NSW Aboriginal and Maternal Infant Health Service (AMIHS) 45 and the NSW Department of Family and Community Services (FACS) Brighter Futures Program.46 Early evaluations of these programmes suggested some positive changes in proximal outcomes related to their objectives.45, 47, 48 However, each of these evaluations was limited by one or more of the following: use of single data sets, less than 2 years of outcome data and / or issues of confounding and selection
