General election 2015 fact-sheets on childcare

Family and Childcare Trust | April 2015

With the General Election fast approaching, childcare will undoubtedly be a key issue for many voters.

To help parliamentary candidates from all political parties understand the level of childcare provision, how much the state and parents spend, how it is used and how the system works, the Family and Childcare Trust have prepared childcare fact sheets covering each nation of the United Kingdom.

These fact sheets cover topics such as the current level of childcare provision, costs and use. They set out an overview of the system and current issues facing families.
