My question is to the Minister for Early Childhood Education, Senator Walsh. Today is Early Childhood Educators Day. It recognises the vital contribution early childhood educators make every single day in supporting our children and families. For too long educators were undervalued, with low pay and high turnover undermining quality and stability for children. When the Albanese Labor government was elected in 2022, educators were leaving in droves. What is the government doing to back early childhood educators and stabilise this essential workforce?
