On 9 February 2021, Megan Blaxland gave a presentation as part of the Social Policy Research Centre seminar series. Megan is one of the chief investigators on our project. She presented the findings from a separate but relevant project Equitable Access to High Quality Early Childhood Education funded by the Gonski Institute for Education, UNSW Sydney.
In seeking to determine why families might not engage in early education and care (ECEC), rather than labelling these families ‘hard to reach’ the research team inverted this concept and examined what might make services ‘hard to use’.
