Increase funding for Early years providers.
Increase funding for early years settings. We believe early childcare is fundamental to all children and giving them the best start. Save our nurseries and Preschools. We believe early years education is crucial to set the foundations.
The Government wants the early years sector to support Working Parents. How can we when the sector is under pressure from wages, NI costs to the employer and business rates?
We believe settings will rely on Apprentices to staff them and have a skeleton core staff, which could lead to quality being compromised. Many settings, in our view, will be forced to put quantity over quality by maximising floor space with children.
