These are the applicant types Department of Education lists for this program. It is a starting filter, not the full eligibility test, and the guidelines on the official page are what decide an application.
What Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL) funds
Funding for eligible community and mobile preschools to support activities that increase inclusion and participation in early childhood education and care for children 3 years old and above from targeted equity cohorts. Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL) is part of the NSW government’s commitment to increasing investment in early childhood education and care (ECEC) and ensuring all children have access to quality ECEC. This program strengthens the support available to services to meet the diverse needs of children in NSW in the two years before school.

How to apply
Applications are made through
Department of Education
Not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look. The direct link to Department of Education's own page for this program is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.
- This round is closed. Many Australian grant programs run again, and a closed program is the reason the alert list exists: we watch this listing nightly and tell the list the day it reopens.
- No closing date has been published, so check the official page for the current round before you begin. Any date that appears there is picked up on the next nightly read.
- Confirm details on the official page before applying. GrantWindow records what the funder published and when we read it. We are not the funder and this page is not legal, financial or eligibility advice.

When does Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL) close?
Department of Education has not published a closing date, so GrantWindow does not show one. We do not estimate a deadline somebody may plan a week of work around. The date appears here the night the funder publishes it.
How much funding is available through Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL)?
Department of Education does not publish a funding amount for this program, so this page does not show one. The figure, where there is one, is in the guidelines Department of Education publishes on their own page, which this record names and carries the link to.
Who can apply for Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL)?
Department of Education lists this program as open to schools. That is a starting filter rather than the full eligibility test: the criteria in the funder's guidelines are what decide an application.
Is Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL) still open?
This round is closed. Closed rounds stay on record because most Australian grant programs run again, and the reopening is the one worth being early for. The alert list is told the night it does.
Who runs Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL), and does GrantWindow take a cut?
Additional Targeted Equity Loading (ATEL) is offered by Department of Education in New South Wales. Applications are made through the funder, never through GrantWindow: we take no applications, charge no fee and act as no intermediary. Any site offering to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.
