We want to make available more great childcare for parents and children.
If we want our children to succeed at school, go on to university or into an apprenticeship and thrive in later life, we must get it right in the early years. If we want to use the talents of parents, and particularly mothers, to the full, we must ensure there is enough high quality childcare available.
More great childcare is vital to ensuring we can compete in the global race, by helping parents back to work and readying children for school and, eventually, employment. And it can help build a stronger society, with more opportunities for women who want to work and raise children at the same time, and better life chances for children whatever their background.
We will deliver more great childcare by:
- raising the status and quality of the workforce;
- freeing high quality providers to offer more places;
- improving the regulatory regime; and
- giving more choice to parents.
