Abstract
In 2010 ARACY was commissioned by the Australian Government Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) to assist in the development of a research and evaluation plan to inform early childhood policy development and program implementation.
This report maps current research on early childhood development with particular reference to early childhood education and care (ECEC) and, in doing so, aims to identify gaps in current evidence on early childhood development needs, especially as these pertain to government policies.
