The House of Commons Nursery has the capacity to care for 40 children, of which no more than 15 can be under the age of two. In each of the last three years, average usage of the nursery was<\/p>
2011/12: 25%;
2012/13: 31%;
2013/14: 41%.<\/p>
Usage is highest at times of the week and times of the year when the House is sitting. Usage continues to increase with 14 new applications made at the end of July 2014.<\/p>
The net cost of the Nursery was<\/p>
2011/12: £120,160; The increasing usage is expected to lead to the Nursery breaking even in this financial year.<\/p> The latest figures published by UCAS for the 2014 application cycle show that, as at the main UCAS deadline of 15 January, the application rate for young people from the most disadvantaged areas in England had risen to the highest ever level (20.7%). The detailed figures can be found at http://www.ucas.com/news-events/news/2014/2014-cycle-applicant-figures-january-deadline-2014<\/a><\/p>
2012/13: £100,550;
2013/14: £32,170.1<\/sup><\/p>
1<\/sup> From 2013/14 some administrative work previously charged to the Nursery has been absorbed by the Diversity & Inclusion Team. This is estimated to have reduced the identified cost by some £12k.<\/p>"}
