The table below outlines the cost of the CCS and CETS programme from 2016 to date.
The National Childcare Scheme (NCS), when introduced this October, will replace the CCS and TEC programmes with a single, streamlined scheme.
Recent analysis undertaken by the OECD has concluded that, when the NCS is introduced, the costs of Early Learning and Care and School-Age Childcare to parents will come closer to the OECD average. The NCS, in creating a flexible platform for future investment in funding, will allow subsidies to be expanded over time and further progress to be made.
