20 Hours ECE

On 31 January 2009 the Minister of Education announced that the 20 hours early childhood education programme is now called 20 Hours ECE. All references to 'Free ECE' should be read as the same as 20 Hours ECE.

Information for parents about 20 Hours ECE can be found on the Ministry of Education site in the Parents section.
