The Department for Education's (DfE) eight-week consultation, launched today, includes proposals to:
All providers
Childminders
Group and school-based providers
The consultation, which closes on 26 July, is open to all those working in the sector including early years organisations and Ofsted, as well as parents.
It forms part of a number of measures being introduced by the Government to ensure the planned expansion of the funded entitlement for one and two-year-olds from next year is ‘delivered successfully’.
Early next year, the Government will launch a new recruitment campaign with the aim of attracting and retaining ‘talent’. It will also consider how to introduce new accelerated apprenticeship and degree apprenticeship routes, open to all staff.
