Section 1

Tender Overview

The Department of Education invites organisations to apply to lease and operate an early childhood education and care (ECEC) service at a department owned facility located at Williams Street in Blackwater.

The successful lessee will be required to operate an approved ECEC service based on the identified needs of the local community. The service is to cater for children from three years to school entry age. A service approval to operate under the Education and Care Services National Law (Queensland) Act 2011 must be obtained. 

A service provider is being sought to establish and operate an approved ECEC service for children aged 3 to 5 years that is tailored to meet the unique needs of families in the Blackwater community. The service model must demonstrate an ability to engage families with children not currently engaged in a kindergarten program. Preference will be given to an operator who can deliver an approved kindergarten program that addresses barriers that prevent families from accessing kindergarten, including delivering activities to improve the transition to kindergarten. 

There is no recurrent funding available to support the operation of a service at this vacant facility. However, the successful applicant may be eligible to access operational subsidies under the Queensland Kindergarten Funding Scheme.

To lodge a submission by the due date, please read the attached Tender Information Paper and complete the Tender Application Form.

An inspection of the site can be organised upon request by emailing ecec.facilities@qed.qld.gov.au.  

 

PLEASE NOTE: Due to COVID-19 restrictions, site inspections will be by appointment only and limited to 45 minutes maximum.

If you require any assistance with your application or have any questions in relation to the process, please email ecec.facilities@qed.qld.gov.au or telephone (07) 3328 6719.
