The 30 hours childcare entitlement - London

The 30 hours childcare entitlement – planning for success

London

Time: 2.00pm- 4.00pm

The Department for Education and 4Children are holding a number of early engagement events on the 30 hours childcare entitlement. The event is free to attend.

The events will help childcare providers network and get to grips with some of the challenges and solutions in delivering the new 30 hours funded entitlement. As well as a presentation from the DfE updating on the latest news of the 30 hours there will be two workshops. Workshop 1 will look at what the 30 hours could look like from the perspective of the child. Participants will focus on what needs to be in place in terms of quality, flexibility, workforce and SEND. Workshop 2 will look at how providers can work together to deliver the 30 hours, e.g. What might working together look like and what needs to be in place to make this happen? Key points from these table discussions will be shared before the event closes.

The events are designed to:

• explore what the 30 hours childcare offer might mean for children
• understand how providers see the child’s experience
• explore some high level solutions of the 30 hours for providers
• gather approaches to delivery

Who should attend:

• school heads
• nursery owners
• nursery leaders
• nursery finance or business managers
• child minder agencies
• registered child minders
• LA early years leads
• Early years sector organisations

We anticipate great interest in these events so places are limited to 1 person per organisation. We kindly ask that your organisation books a maximum of 1 place and informs the events team as soon as possible should you not be able to attend.
