Infrastructure supports for providers

The Office for Early Childhood Development (OECD) is committed to helping applicants through the Flying Start Infrastructure Grants application and project delivery process.

Applicants who are needing support are encouraged to:

• access the Guidance Pack, fact sheets and templates; and
• check if your organisation is eligible for Guidance Services.

You'll find more information below.

Guidance Pack

South Australia’s Preschool Infrastructure Guidance Pack: Quick Start Guide (launches PDF) provides step-by-step instructions on how to plan, design and construct a new or expanded early childhood facility. It’s designed to make your project experience as easy as possible, even if you have no building experience at all.

The easy-to-follow advice will support you through both stages of applying for a Flying Start Infrastructure Grant with checklists, worksheets and handy templates.
