Member Services
In early 2011 C&K was appointed by the Queensland Department of Education and Training (DET)
as one of five central governing bodies (CGB) to support kindergarten services to provide quality
kindergarten programs through the Queensland Kindergarten Funding Scheme (QKFS).
The Member Services team was created in 2011 to provide
assistance and support for all branch, affiliate and associate
services in administrating all funding needs. As a CGB, C&K
provides support and training to affiliate services, for both
volunteer parent management committees and educational
support for teachers. The change to the QKFS required many
affiliate services to implement improvements to meet the
new requirements. 218 affiliate and associate kindergarten
services signed a three year service agreement with C&K
together with 75 branch kindergarten services.
In addition, 20 C&K long day care services were eligible to
receive QKFS funding via the universal access program. An
additional 10 applications were submitted to DET and have
been approved for funding from the beginning of January
2012.
