The Department for Education is seeking views on changes to how they fund free childcare and early education for 3 and 4 year olds including a new national funding formula.Proposals include:
- introducing a new early years national funding formula for 3 and 4 year olds;
- changing the way local authorities fund the early years providers in their area; and
- making sure that children with special educational needs or disabilities attract the extra funding they need.
