According to the Labour Market Research – Teachers (NSW) report from the Australian Federal Government’s Department of Employment dated April 2017, it highlighted wide-ranging difficulties for recruitment particularly in NSW-based metropolitan areas as well as regional NSW in the long daycare sector. It reported that this is the third consecutive year there has been a recruitment difficulty for early childhood teachers (ECTs) in NSW and follows a shortage in the occupation from 2008 to 2014.
