Which Programming Educator Diary is for me?Updated 21 days ago


Which Programming Educator Diary is for me?

It will depend on what programs you run in your service. 

For educators in Long Day Care or Family Day Care services running programs under the EYLF (for early years, preschool, and kindergarten (except QLD) children 0-5 years) the best programming educator diary for you is the Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary. This includes Victorian Services running under VEYLDF.

Queensland Kindergarten Services running under the QKLG with children aged around 4 years going to school the following year should use the QLD Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary.

For Outdoor Programs, use the Central Outdoor Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary which supports EYLF programs.

For Educators in OSHC, BASC, OOSH or Family Day Care services running programs under the MTOP Framework (for school aged children, 5 years and older) the best programming educator diary for you is the OSHC Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary.

To support you in applying and recording sustainable practices, we have the Our Sustainable Year Wall Calendar. The Culturally Responsive Year Calendar has been designed to meet the discussion notes in the 2021 NQF ALF Update. The recent review focused on Approved Learning Frameworks and highlighted changes to strengthen the connection between Learning Frameworks and the National Quality Standard in Indigenous ways of being, knowing, and doing and moving from cultural competence to cultural responsiveness.

To help you capture and record Individual Observations, our Individual Observations Duplicate Book works in conjunction with the Weekly Programming and Reflection Diary and provides duplicate pages so your records are filed where they need to be. We also have a My Amazing Year - Portfolio Learning Journal for Children to help you capture their progress throughout the year.
