Dear Early Learning and Care and School Age Childcare provider,
The deadline for the 2023/2024 Annual Early Years Sector Profile survey has been extended to allow more time for services to complete the survey. The survey will now close at 11pm on Friday 07 June.
Please remember to complete the survey as soon as possible. Completion of this year’s survey before the revised deadline is mandatory for all existing Core Funding Partner Services. If you are contracted into Core Funding and you do not complete the Annual Early Years Sector Profile 2023/24 before the deadline on 07 June your Core Funding payments will be placed on hold until such a time as the process is completed.
Services who wish to become a Core Funding Partner Service for the 2024 programme year must also complete the 2023/24 Annual Early Years Sector Profile survey in advance of submitting their Core Funding application. As well as providing information about the sector, this survey enables the capture of data that will help to monitor the impact of Core Funding on the sector.
Thank you to those services who have already completed the survey and we encourage any remaining services to submit by Friday 07 June.
