Collection and usage attributes | |
| Guide for use: | The child must have been offered a place in a preschool program and actively attending to be counted. A child is considered to be actively attending if they have attended a preschool program for at least one hour in the reference period or was absent in the reference period due to illness or extended holiday leave but was expected to return. |
|---|---|
| Collection methods: | The number of Indigenous children enrolled in a preschool program should be collected for each preschool program available at the service. These data should then be aggregated to the service provider level for reporting purposes. Each child should be counted only once. Enrolments in a preschool program should be reported for the specified reference period. Jurisdictions which adopt a two week reference period are required to derive their data to a representative reference week. |
