A commitment to raising the number of early years and childcare workers who hold qualifications is among the Scottish Executive's spending plans for the next three years, presented to the Scottish Parliament last week. The budget report for 2005-2008 states a commitment to improving the skills and qualifications of the childcare workforce by increasing the proportion of early years, childcare and support staff meeting qualification requirements from 66 per cent in September 2003 to 85 per cent by January 2009.
