As part of the expansion of early learning and childcare to 1,140 hours by 2020, the Scottish Government, in collaboration with Scottish Futures Trust and the Care Inspectorate are developing design guidance for early learning and childcare service providers.
The guidance will relate to the accommodation and the environment they provide. It will be useful for providers when they:
- consider providing an early learning and childcare service
- plan for any expansion
- develop their indoor and/or outdoor spaces.
Although the guidance will assist with the government’s planned expansion of early learning and childcare, it will also be useful to any out-of-school care services.
To help us in our research, we would like the views from managers and staff who work directly with children.
We would be very grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete this short questionnaire.
