The 30 hours free childcare guide for local authorities and early years providers sets out what local authorities should do to carry out their statutory responsibilities, and what early years providers should do to fulfil their agreement with the local authority.
It also covers how local authorities and early years settings can support parents and children with the 30 hours with examples from providers, local authorities and sector organisations involved in the areas trialling the 30-hour scheme.
The DfE says that there will be more case studies from the early rollout of 30 hours free childcare with the guidance updated ‘in due course’.
