Celebrating Excellence

Celebrating Excellence Across Our Kindergartens

We are delighted to share some wonderful news with our families and community.

Over the past few months, four Glen Education kindergartens have achieved the highest possible rating of Exceeding the National Quality Standard (NQS) across all seven quality areas assessed under the National Quality Framework for Early Childhood Education and Care.

We are proud to congratulate:

• Glen Sundowner Kindergarten – Exceeding NQS (7/7 Quality Areas), May 2026

• Glen Bentleigh Kindergarten – Exceeding NQS (7/7 Quality Areas), June 2026

• Glen McKinnon Kindergarten – Exceeding NQS (7/7 Quality Areas), June 2026

• Glen Aspendale North Kindergarten – Exceeding NQS (7/7 Quality Areas), July 2026

This achievement reflects the dedication, professionalism and passion of our educators, teachers and leadership teams, who work every day to provide exceptional learning environments where children feel safe, supported and inspired to learn.

An Exceeding rating across all seven quality areas is a significant accomplishment. It recognises services that consistently go beyond the requirements of the National Quality Standard and demonstrate excellence in areas including educational programs, children's health and safety, relationships with children, partnerships with families and communities, governance, leadership and continuous improvement.

Most importantly, this achievement would not be possible without the trust, collaboration and engagement of our families. Your partnership plays a vital role in creating strong, connected kindergarten communities where children can thrive.

We thank our educators, children and families for contributing to these outstanding results and for helping us continue our commitment to providing the highest quality early childhood education and care.

Together, we celebrate this remarkable milestone and look forward to continuing to nurture confident, capable and curious learners across all of our kindergartens.
