1. 26 August 2021

   We have made revisions to the ODS data files to redact details for a small number of providers in response to changes to consent arrangements.

2. 14 December 2018

   A minor correction has been made to the revised inspections data for the period 1 September to 31 December 2017. As a consequence there have been minor revisions to Tables 14 to 19 in 'Childcare providers and inspections as at 31 March 2018: data, charts and tables'. These revisions did not result in any changes to the main findings identified in the previous publication.

3. 15 August 2018

   The HTML version of the ‘Childcare providers and inspections as at 31 March 2018: main findings' document has been republished for this release. A correction has been made to the last sentence in the first paragraph of section 3.3 ‘Introduction of 30 hours free childcare’. It now reads ‘There were an estimated 294,000 children in a 30 hours place in the spring term, representing 89% of all eligibility codes issued to parents for that term.'
