There are now a number childcare and education business management systems available in the sector all offering different approaches and benefits and we thought that it would be helpful at this point to give you an update on where we stand with this development. Many of our members have contacted us for our recommendation on the available products.
Early Childhood Ireland is currently carrying out an in-depth review of this area, including analysis of the existing systems with a view to announcing our position in September. At this point, we are not recommending any one system to our members. Our research will inform our approach for 2015 and beyond. This is an area that we have been interested in for a long time and it is one that we will pursue whether it is with a partner or launching our own branded product.
We will come back to you in September 2015 to keep you updated on our progress.
