Footnotes

  1. Statutory guidance advises local authorities not to fund provision judged requires improvement or inadequate for eligible two-year-olds unless sufficient, accessible provision judged good or outstanding is not available.
  2. A 2-year-old can be counted under more than one basis for funding if more than one applies.
  3. Data collected in 2021 (and to a lesser extent 2022) was affected by the impact of COVID-19 uncertainty on providers and parents. Further information is available in the methodology note.
  4. 'No match' includes independent schools who are not required to register with Ofsted and academy converters who have not yet been inspected under their new status. These are included as a proportion of the 'Total' numbers, based on the total number of children receiving government-funded early years provision at these providers.
  5. Children who split their entitlement across more than one private, voluntary or independent provider are only counted at the provider where they spend the majority of their time.
