Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Childcare (Provision of Information About Young Children) (England) Regulations 2008 (S.I. 2008/1722). Regulation 4(3) requires providers of early years provision who are exempt from registration under section 34(2) of the Childcare Act 2006 (provision for children aged 3 or over at certain schools) to supply the information set out in Part 1 of the Schedule to the local authority in whose area the funded early years provision is provided. The providers who are exempt from registration are those providing childcare for children from age 3 to the 1st September following their fifth birthday at a maintained school, non-maintained special school or an independent school, where that provision is made by the school and one or more pupils attend it.

These Regulations amend Regulation 4(3) so that these schools are also required to provide the information contained in paragraph 10 of Part 2 of the Schedule which is the number of hours of funded early years provision that each child receives per week.
