Early Childhood Development Reform Plan
Draft Outcomes
We know the outcomes that we want for Victorian children and families
All children are engaged, confident and creative learners
All young children are safe, cared for and thriving
Vulnerability and disadvantage do not determine outcomes for young people
Parents and carers feel well supported by early childhood services.

VEYLDF - Reflective Practice
Reflecting on and critically evaluating practice is a core part of all early childhood professionals’ work.
It is at the heart of maintaining a learning culture in a service, setting or network and is linked with continuous improvement.
