The values have been derived using the EYSFF principles which have been applied following strong support from providers following the consultation period in late September/early October 2009 and have been discussed and approved by the Partnership Advisory Group and Schools forum in January/February 2012.

Business support continues to be available through the Childcare Development Co-ordinator based in the local SfYC field offices. If you are unsure which is the local field office for your setting, please call the SfYC helpline on 01962 847070.
