Grant Description
The Flying Start Workforce Grants – Round 2 provide one-off, 12-month funding of up to $150,000 to strengthen attraction and retention of the early childhood education and care (ECEC) workforce in South Australia’s regional, rural and hard-to-staff communities. The program targets initiatives that respond to clearly evidenced local needs and are delivered through partnerships and collaboration, supporting the roll-out of 3-year-old preschool. Key focus areas include workforce attraction and retention strategies, cultural safety, wellbeing and mental health, and approaches that increase the number of qualified educators, teachers and trainers across communities.
