Liberals Plan To Blow Current Educator-to-Child Ratios To 1:50
The recent proposal by the NSW Liberal Party to drastically cut the number of qualified educators in the early childhood education and care sector has...
In a speech in NSW Parliament’s upper house yesterday, Ms Munro bluntly stated that regulations on ratios should change to cut costs in the sector.
“There are ways we can make childcare cheaper. We can change the regulations around educators who are childcare providers,” she said.
“We don’t need five or six highly educated people to look after 50 kids. Maybe we need one.”
This is a stark contrast to the current National Quality Framework, which mandates a maximum ratio of one educator for 10 children over three years old.

Bruh the 1:20 i grew up with was unmanageable. I might as well home school my kid with that level of attention they are going to get. 8 hours/50 so like 8 minutes of possible 1 on 1 time.
The article is referring to Early Childcare facilities. Imagine 1 adult vs 50 three year olds?
Lol, I have 1 toddler and a 1:1 ratio doesn't even seem enough sometimes. 50 is just nuts.
Child care pits coming soon to a community center near you.
So depressing to see that libs can come out and say shit like this, and then you go to your local area's Facebook group and it's still full of people saying 'vote Labor out' because another car got stolen or whatever.
The libs are gonna cut cop funding too.
I'm sure that whatever they plan on doing will have the opposite effect on crime, but it's effective to campaign on it, look at Queensland.
Labor should probably have an answer for this instead of just ignoring the perception people have.
You get a valium, and you get a valium, everybody gets a valium.
That's way worst. I could handle maybe 3 max. Ideally 2 but 50? Hope everything in that room is padded and kids strapped to TVs like in walle. Cause otherwise that's That's lawless territory. So when's the benevolent AI child care Rosie coming online?
