Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

The Childcare (Provision of Information About Young Children) (England) Regulations 2009 (“the 2009 Regulations”) prescribe the individual child information which early years providers can be required to provide to the Secretary of State. These Regulations amend the 2009 Regulations to introduce a requirement on all childcare providers to collect information about the early years pupil premium including whether a provider is in receipt in relation to the child and, if so, the reason why the child is eligible.
