The decision to embrace Early Years Management (EYM) is an exciting opportunity for standalone kindergartens.
An EYM is a local government or community-based organisation that provides professional leadership and centralised management of kindergarten services plus greater resources. EYMs can elevate the quality of educational programs, strengthen community connections, and create a nurturing environment that truly benefits your children and families.
ELAA has developed an EYM Transition Guide to support committees of management (CoM) of stand-alone kindergartens considering or in the process of transitioning to an Early Years Management (EYM) organisation.
This guide provides information and guidance about:
- the benefits of EYM
- when to consider transitioning to an EYM organisation
- factors to consider when choosing an EYM organisation
- how to ensure a successful transfer of responsibilities to an EYM organisation
- where to find further information and support.
