Petition Action

Stop the government increasing nursery/children centre staff-child ratios

Additional Information

The government's changes to nursery and children's centre ratios will degrade the quality of care given in nurseries and the changes are being made just to cope with a lack of places in the system, and a failure to fund more staff.

The government should roll back this change for children in age groups <1 to 2 y/o (inclusive).
