The value of preschool education is well-established, but the rate of attendance of Indigenous children is still below that of their non-Indigenous counterparts. Early intervention is clearly likely to be much more effective than later efforts to repair patterns of performance and behaviour and, for this reason, early childhood is an important focus. These case studies have such a focus.
