Approved Queensland Education and Care (QEC)...
Under Section 214 of the Queensland Education and Care Services Act 2013 (the Act), the Department of Education and Training is required to maintain a register of QEC approved services. That is, education and care (child care) services which are approved to operate under the Act.
This dataset is an extract from the register as at 31 December 2025 and includes contact details for all QEC approved services.
Please note this register does not include services approved under the National Quality Framework (NQF). The register of approved services under the NQF is published on the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority website (www.acecqa.gov.au).
