Who can apply

Department of Education does not publish a structured list of eligible applicant types for this program, so this page does not show one. The eligibility criteria in the guidelines on the official page are the ones that count.

What Connected Beginnings Program funds

What this money is forIndigenous

The objective of Connected Beginnings is to support the integration of early childhood, maternal and child health, and family support services with schools in a number of First Nations communities that are best placed to benefit so that children are well prepared for 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 application page is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.

  • 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.

Answered from this program's own record, and re-read against the funder's page every night.

When does Connected Beginnings Program close?

Department of Education accepts applications on an ongoing basis and publishes no closing date. Ongoing rounds do get paused and closed without much notice, so this listing is re-read every night and the alert list is told the day it changes.

How much funding is available through Connected Beginnings Program?

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 Connected Beginnings Program?

Department of Education does not publish a structured list of eligible applicant types. The eligibility criteria Department of Education publishes in their own guidelines are the ones that count, and this record carries the link to them.

Is Connected Beginnings Program still open?

It was ongoing intake when we last read Department of Education's own page, on 24 Oct 2026. Every source is re-read nightly and this page carries the date of the last read.

Who runs Connected Beginnings Program, and does GrantWindow take a cut?

Connected Beginnings Program is offered by Department of Education in Commonwealth of Australia. 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.
