Guide for use:

CODE 1 State or territory government funded only

Record if the early childhood education and care service providing a preschool program is funded by the state or territory government only (i.e. does not receive any funding from the Australian Government).

Australian Government funding refers only to funding for Child Care Benefit (CCB)-approved services that provide a preschool program.

Comments:

This item categorises services by funding type to provide contextual information for the Report on Government Services (RoGS).

The presentation of preschool data in the RoGS is yet to be determined, but this item will allow preschool data from the National Early Childhood Education and Care Collection to be disaggregated by the service funding type (e.g if reporting the indicator ‘children enrolled in a preschool program’, data could be disaggregated by those enrolled in a service that is government funded, or those enrolled in a service that is privately funded only).
