The NQF sets a high National Quality Standard (NQS) to encourage services to continually improve their programs and practices. Services are assessed and rated against the seven quality areas of the NQS:
1 Educational program and practice Your child is supported to participate in play and learning
2 Children’s health and safety Your child is protected from illness and hazards
3 Physical environment Your child plays in a safe and well maintained environment
4 Staffing arrangements There are enough qualified staff to give your child the attention they need
5 Relationships with children Your child is made to feel supported and welcomed
6 Collaborative partnerships with families and communities Local community involvement and respect for the beliefs and values of families
7 Governance and leadership Your child is cared for in a positive and well managed environment
