	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2015 answer text <table><tbody><tr><td><p>The Department for Education does not collect its own data, but uses cost information from a number of independent surveys, such as the Family and Childcare Trust Annual Childcare Cost Survey 2015 which can be found online at: <a href="http://www.familyandchildcaretrust.org/childcare-costs-surveys" target="_blank">http://www.familyandchildcaretrust.org/childcare-costs-surveys</a>. The FCT survey measures the average market price for 25 hours of paid-for childcare and, therefore, takes no account of the 15 hours free early education and childcare that the majority of parents of young children are entitled to.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Department has already increased funding in the early years from £2 billion to £3 billion a year over the course of this Parliament. We are the first Government to fund 15 hours a week of free childcare for all three- and four-year-olds and for disadvantaged two-year-olds. The funding for all three and four-year-olds is worth an additional £425 a year per child; and the funding for around 40% of two-year-olds, £2,500 a year per child.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>We will be introducing Tax-Free Childcare from autumn 2015, under which up to 1.8 million working families could benefit by up to £2,000 per child, per year.</p><p> </p><p>For working parents on low and middle incomes, working tax credit pays up to 70% of their childcare costs which could be worth up to £6,370 for their first child. Under Universal Credit, the subsidy rate will increase to 85% of childcare costs and support will be available, for the first time, to those working fewer than 16 hours per week.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In relation to childcare costs in London being higher, we have invested £30 million to increase the number of childcare places available for two-year-olds and to encourage more school nurseries to open from 8am - 6pm. Linked with this, we are working with the Family and Childcare Trust, the Greater London Authority and the Local Government Association, and with the support of London Councils, on a project to help schools in London develop flexible, full-day nursery provision. The project, and the learning it generates, will increase the amount of flexible childcare available and the choices that parents have.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Mr Sam Gyimah question first answered 09/03/2015 15:27:53 answering member 3980 label Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah
