Early Years Surveys

The end of last week saw the latest release of two annual DfE publications with direct relevance to users of this site. The Childcare and Early Years Providers Survey 2011 provides a detailed snapshot of childcare and early years provision across England, while the related Childcare and Early Years Survey of Parents 2011 investigates exactly how parents are making use of the sector, and their views about the service they have received. Both documents are full of detailed statistics if numbers are your thing!
