Since then a wide range of childcare initiatives and funding streams have been introduced, and hence there is a need for regular data to aid the evaluation of recent policy interventions in these areas. The Childcare and Early Years Provision survey series is divided into two survey strands: the Parents’ Survey and the Providers’ Survey. The Parents’ Survey provides data on parents’ take-up, views and experiences of childcare. Families in England are randomly selected from the Child Benefit Records and all parents had children aged 0-14 years. They are asked about their use and experiences of childcare for all children in the family and to give more detailed information about childcare for a particular child (selected at random where there is more than one child in the family). The current Parents' Survey series replaces two previous surveys: the Survey of Parents of Three and Four-Year-Old Children and Their Use of Early Years Services (conducted between 1997 and 2002) and Parents' Demand for Childcare, conducted in 1999 and 2001 (see SNs 4380 and 4970 respectively). The Providers' Survey monitors the characteristics and development of childcare and early years providers and the workforce in England. Information was collected on the number and characteristics of providers, the characteristics of the children enrolled, workforce composition, qualifications and training, recruitment and retention, and business operation. The 2016 survey underwent an extensive redesign, which means findings are not comparable with previous surveys. The 2020 survey was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic Further information is available on the GOV.UK <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-childcare-and-early-years" title="Childcare and Early Years Statistics" target="_blank">Childcare and Early Years Statistics</a> webpage. <div>Special licence data</div><div>Additional, more detailed variables from the Providers' Survey in 2018, 2019 and 2021 are available under Special Licence (SL). The SL data have more restrictive access conditions than those made available under the standard End User Licence (EUL) agreement. Prospective users of the SL version will need to complete an extra application form and demonstrate to the data owners exactly why they need access to the additional variables in order to get permission to use that version. Users are advised to consult the EUL version first and the list of variables available under each study before applying.</div><div> </div>The Childcare and Early Years Provision: Providers’ Survey, 2013 collected information on the number and characteristics of providers, the characteristics of the children enrolled, workforce composition, qualifications and profitability. The 2013 survey covered both childcare (full day care, sessional care, out-of-school care, childminders and children's centres), and early years settings in maintained schools (nursery schools, primary schools with nursery and reception classes and primary schools with reception but no nursery classes). Further information about the 2013 survey may be found on the gov.uk <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/childcare-and-early-years-providers-survey-2013">Childcare and Early Years Providers Survey, 2013</a> webpage. Main Topics: The datasets contain information on childcare and early years providers. The 2013 questionnaires were broadly similar to questionnaires from previous years, reintroducing questions that had been removed from the shortened 2011 survey. A small number of new questions were added on subjects such as number of apprentices, and child to staff ratios. For further information see the Technical Report in the documentation.
