BestStart has been recognised as Excelling by the Education Review Office (ERO) in its latest Governing Organisation Review - the highest result possible.

The rating was awarded for organisational conditions, which consider how well a provider’s leadership, management and systems create the foundation for high-quality early learning. BestStart also achieved an Embedded rating for learning conditions, recognising the positive impact of the organisation’s teaching and learning on children’s outcomes.
 
BestStart CEO Tony Ryall says the result reflects the dedication of teachers and support staff across the organisation to make a positive difference in the lives of children.
 
“This remarkable achievement belongs to our people. It’s the result of their dedication to children, their commitment to learning and development, and the passion they bring every day to their work,” he says.
 
The ERO Governing Organisation Review examines how well early learning providers are positioned to support quality education and strong learning outcomes. Achieving 'Excelling' is a significant milestone for BestStart and a strong endorsement of the consistency and quality across our organisation.
