Early Years Education

Contribution

My Lords, evidence shows that more time in quality early education and childcare leads to better outcomes for children, including improved well-being, attainment and employability. That is why this Government are investing close to £1.5 billion to increase access to provision and improve quality, focusing on those who need it most. This commitment is part of our mission to ensure that every child has the best possible start in life, laying strong foundations for learning and future success.
