Alliance comments on latest 新澳门六合彩官网开奖 children鈥檚 centre statistics

19th March 2015

Commenting on the latest 新澳门六合彩官网开奖 statistics on children鈥檚 centre inspection outcomes, Neil Leitch, chief executive of the Pre-school Learning Alliance, said:

鈥淥nly last week the Education Select Committee raised concerns that the hard work currently being undertaken by centre teams is currently being undermined by a lack of political support and direction. It is inevitable that this uncertainty is reflected in latest statistics that show a downward trend in 新澳门六合彩官网开奖 inspection outcomes.

This issue should be addressed as a matter of priority by the Department for Education. We need to ensure that the many vulnerable families relying on these centres are given the support they need.鈥
