Footnotes
- Respondents were asked to indicate whether any children in their household have Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND). Those who answered "Yes" for any of their children, even if not the child the entitlements were claimed for, are labelled "has SEND children".
- Due to the extremely small sample size, respondents using more than 70 hours of childcare per week were considered outliers and excluded from analysis.
- Percentages shown as 0% may represent true values less than 0.5% that have been rounded down. For more precise figures, please download the table via the Export options link on the Table tab above.
