Recruiting in South Australia

South Australia has begun a phased introduction of preschool for three-year-olds, following the 2023 Royal Commission into Early Childhood Education and Care. Over time this is expected to increase demand for early childhood teachers and educators.

Fewer agencies name South Australia specifically in their coverage, so national agencies make up much of the list below. Ask how an agency would source candidates locally before you commit to a search.

Before choosing an agency, see questions to ask an early childhood recruitment agency, and when to use permanent staffing or casual relief.
