We as a Local Authority are required to submit an LA readiness survey to the Department of Education and therefore require the data from ALL the Early Years Settings.

We will also use your responses to inform the distribution of funding for the Early Years Expansion Grant, Childcare Capital Expansion Grant and the roll-out of extended entitlements and charges.
