Publication of statistics on childcare providers and inspections

Consultation description

About this consultation

This consultation seeks your views on proposed changes to our statistical release on childcare providers and inspections. We are seeking the widest possible range of views to ensure that the publication meets the needs of all users with an interest or expertise in early years.

We propose to:

• reduce the publication frequency of our official statistics on childcare providers and inspections from 3 times to 2 times per year
• publish management information twice per year to provide more regular updates to the data
• make changes to data tables to provide a more detailed picture of the childcare sector

We will consider all responses carefully before finalising and publishing the results in spring 2021.
