G8 Education welcomes the passing of the Early Childhood Education and Care (Strengthening Regulation of Early Education) Bill 2025 as an important step to strengthen the safety and quality across the early childhood education and care (ECEC) sector.
G8 Education CEO and Managing Director Mr Pejman Okhovat welcomed the new legislation as a positive step forward to ensure the safety, wellbeing, and development of children in early learning environments.
“We support the emphasis on stronger regulatory oversight and welcome measures that empower authorities to enforce safety standards that enhance transparency around compliance actions. These steps are essential to ensure consistency and accountability across the sector,” he said.
“G8 Education maintains a strong culture of self-reporting and transparency, and proactively identifies, reports, and addresses incidents, including taking disciplinary action where necessary.”
G8 Education looks forward to continuing to work with Government to ensure the highest standards of care and protection for every child in early learning environments.
