100 preschools set to open in NSW, but how many will be accepting children?

Key points

• The NSW government has promised 100 new public preschools will be finished and ready for students by day one of term one in 2027. Education Minister Prue Car confirmed the buildings would be complete by then, but repeatedly declined to say how many would actually accept children on that first day.
• She also would not estimate how many would be open, or say whether delays were expected while each centre awaits approval from the independent NSW Early Learning Commission.
• Opposition education spokesperson Felicity Wilson said families needed certainty about where their children would be enrolled.
