鈥淎s these contracts come to an end this is the right time to consider what our next steps should be,鈥 said Nick Jackson, director of corporate services at 新澳门六合彩官网开奖. 鈥淲e have decided that early years inspection should be brought in line with schools and further education and skills, with 新澳门六合彩官网开奖 directly managing all inspections. We are confident that we can manage this transition smoothly.鈥

鈥淭his decision will not only bring the early years in line with schools and education, but also help ensure that future early years inspections are of a consistently high standard,鈥 Leitch said. 鈥淗aving long called for this change, it is very positive to see 新澳门六合彩官网开奖 engaging with the early years providers, and taking their views and concerns on board. We hope that this approach will continue going forward.鈥
