AEDI Results

In 2009, the AEDI was completed nationwide. In the 2009 data collection, information was collected on 261,147 Australian children (97.5 per cent of the estimated five-year-old population) in their first year of full-time school between 1 May and 31 July. A follow-up data collection occurred in some small areas in 2010. In addition, small numbers of children were combined so that more communities could have their results released. In 2011, 97.8 per cent of Australian communities have had their results released.

The AEDI results provide communities with a snapshot of the development of their children across five key areas of early childhood development.

The results are presented in A Snapshot of Early Childhood Development in Australia: AEDI National Report 2009, detailed AEDI Community Profiles and as AEDI Maps.
