In this series of responsive professional learning opportunities, educators and service leaders will find support to navigate an increasingly complex and high-pressure environment where families are understandably concerned about children’s safety, and where teams are facing heightened scrutiny and, at times, a sense of mistrust.
Supporting and retaining experienced, confident educators is essential to maintaining safe environments and strengthening child protection practices across services.
These content-rich and practice-based professional learning series extend beyond compliance requirements to invite deep reflection and innovative practice design that safeguards children, asks questions of practice and builds the confidence needed to ensure all children thrive

“Being ethical involves thinking about everyday actions and decision making, either individually or collectively, and responding with respect to all concerned” (ECA Code of Ethics, 2016). The release of EYLF V2 is a perfect time to take a moment to reflect on the continued connection of the document to the ECA Code of Ethics. As professionals, we have a number of ethical responsibilities and engaging in critically reflective dialogue around ethical pedagogy is one of these.
In this webinar, Catharine Hydon and Linda Newman discussed:
- the complimentary nature of the ECA Code of Ethics and the Early Years Learning Framework
- the role of ethics in professional practice
- examples of what ethical practice might look like in early childhood settings.
