The Statutory Consultation on Early Learning and Childcare in East Ayrshire Council is now open
Education authorities have a statutory duty under the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 to consult with a representative group of parents and carers with children under school age in their area about how they should make early learning and childcare available.
We have created two surveys for parents, carers and prospective parents and carers residing in East Ayrshire in order to hear their views on early learning and childcare in our authority. The surveys will be open for 3 weeks from the 31st May.
The views of parents and carers are important to us and will be used to inform the future delivery of early learning and childcare in East Ayrshire Council so please take 5 minutes to complete this survey if you are a parent or carer of a child or children currently accessing funded early learning and childcare: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/1C7NKT/
Or, if you are a parent or carer of a baby or young child or a prospective parent or carer not yet accessing early learning and childcare please take two minutes to share your views with us using this link: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/SLIBOJ/
We will also be seeking the views of children as part of the Statutory Consultation.
If you would like more information about the Statutory Consultation please contact EarlyYears-Admin@east-ayrshire.gov.uk.
Your support with this important exercise is much appreciated.
