Gladesville Putney Before & After School Care

Accreditation

Outside School Hours Care Quality Assurance (OSHCQA) aims to provide school age children in outside school hours care throughout Australia with high quality care that promotes learning and development with particular emphasis on play, social interaction and recreation. OSHCQA is a Commonwealth Government initiative linked to Child Care Benefit funding approval for outside school hours care services. The National Childcare Accreditation Council Inc (NCAC) has administered OSHCQA since its inception on 1 July 2003.
