This year, the Department invested £9.1 million to set up local Holiday Activity and Food coordinating organisations in 11 local authority areas. They were responsible for funding and overseeing free holiday clubs so that disadvantaged children in these areas could benefit from high quality provision during the summer holiday. This was a considerable increase from the £2 million that was awarded in 2018. The Department continues to build on its understanding of how free provision can be coordinated and on information about what works in supporting this sector.<\/p>

The Department works closely with Childcare Works, our national delivery contractor, to ensure that all local authorities provide sufficient childcare places in order to deliver free early years entitlements. Local authorities are required to report annually to elected council members on how they are meeting their duty to secure sufficient childcare and make this report available and accessible to parents. At this time, no local authority has reported that they are unable to meet their duty to provide sufficient places.<\/p>
The Department\u2019s Childcare and Early Years Providers Survey collects data on registered early years childcare places, including those in maintained schools and nurseries. Data is available at a national and regional level. A link to the survey can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/childcare-and-early-years-providers-survey-2018<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p>"}
