National Quality Standard (NQS)
Striving to provide better service
The National Quality Standard (NQS) sets a high national benchmark for early childhood education and care and outside school hours care services in Australia.
Services are assessed and rated by their regulatory authority against the NQS, and given a rating for each of the 7 quality areas and an overall rating based on these results.
The NQS includes 7 quality areas that are important outcomes for children.
QA1 - Educational program and practice
QA2 - Children’s health and safety
QA3 - Physical environment
QA3 - Staffing arrangements
QA5 - Relationships with children
QA6 - Collaborative partnerships with families and communities
QA7 - Leadership and service management
