1. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND:

1.1 Surrey County Council’s (SCC) Early Years and Childcare Service (EYCS)

operates within a legislative framework that places statutory duties on local authorities to:

improve outcomes for all children up to age five and to reduce inequalities

reduce inequalities by integrating early childhood services

ensure sufficient childcare places for children under five and for those of school age for parents who need a place for their child

ensure sufficient early education for three and four year olds and for eligible two year olds

provide information to parents so they can access a full range of information they may need for their child

ensure all settings and schools are implementing the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)

ensure there are sufficient children’s centres to meet local needs and to consult on any significant change.

1.2 EYCS provides advice, guidance and support to the early years and childcare sector in order to meet these statutory duties and to ensure that children can access high quality provision. Access to high quality early education and childcare improves outcomes for children and sets the foundations for learning and development throughout a child’s journey through education and into adulthood.

1.3 SCC does not directly provide any childcare, though a small proportion of

childcare places for under fives are provided in schools and in children’s centres managed by schools. Schools provide childcare places for school aged children and during school holidays. Borough and District Councils providing Holiday Playschemes also support this latter aspect of childcare provision.

1.4 Consequently, the majority of childcare and early education places are

provided by the private, voluntary and independent (PVI) sector in Full Day Care, group settings and with childminders. For any time required over and above the free early education entitlement for eligible two year olds and for all three and four year olds, parents have to pay and may receive financial assistance, through tax credits, the childcare voucher scheme or through specific grants linked to accessing employment or training.

1.5 The current average costs of childcare, and payments made for the free

entitlement are indicated in Table 1 below: Table 1: Average cost of childcare per hour (2015)

Age Average cost of childcare Free entitlement payments

Under two’s £7.02 Nil

Two year olds £6.68 *(£5.46) £6.00

Three to five year olds £6.68 *(£5.46) £4.15 *Figures in brackets are for the cost of childcare with a childminder

2. ANALYSIS:

2.1 This report provides details on the quality of the early education and childcare

sector based on four key measures:

Access and take-up of early education and childcare places

Outcomes at the end of Reception Year within the Early Years Foundation Stage for Surrey, including those for vulnerable groups

Ofsted inspection outcomes for childcare and early education settings

Levels of qualifications of staff in the sector

2.2 The report also provides information on the take-up and range of services provided by children’s centres in the borough as follows:

Registration and attendance rates

Percentage of children registered and supported

Parents and children attending or benefitting from children’s centre activity in the last year

Full details of the data are contained in the appendix to this report.

2.3 Access and take-up of early education and childcare places: all three and four year old children are entitled to fifteen hours of free early education. Since September 2013, this entitlement has been extended to two year olds who meet certain criteria and, in September 2014, this was further extended to approximately 40% of all two year olds where parents have a household income below £16,000 (free school meals criteria). Parents can take-up their entitlement in a variety of settings that are registered to provide early education. Tables 1-4 in the appendix to this report contain details of the availability and take-up of places in the borough.

Whilst the current position is that there are sufficient early education places in the borough and children are accessing places in neighbouring areas outside Runnymede, take-up is lower than the Surrey average. The Childcare Sufficiency Audit 2014 identifies there is not currently sufficient childcare places to meet current and projected demand in Chertsey Meads, Chertsey South, and Row Town and Addlestone Bourneside. There is also a projected deficit in 2016 for Thorpe and Egham Hythe.

To ensure we have sufficient places Early Years staff work closely with the borough council to identify suitable premises and facilitate either a tendering process or the relocation of existing settings. We supported the opening of a new setting in Addlestone and also supported another to offer more flexible places to ensure their sustainability in the last term. Early Years has also worked with local schools to develop two year old places at Chertsey Nursery School and Englefield Green Primary, and White Lodge now offer places to non SEN children. We are also currently supporting Thorpe school to take 2 year olds and expand their nursery provision.

We are currently working in partnership with schools planning to identify projected need linked to potential local developments, and seeking appropriate infrastructure contributions to support the development or expansion of early years childcare places. There are 65 settings offering free early education places for two year olds (FEET) and 159 children were funded in the 2015 summer term.

2.4 Outcomes at the end of Reception Year within the Early Years

Foundation Stage (EYFS) for Surrey including those for vulnerable groups: The EYFS is the statutory framework that sets the standards that all early years providers must meet to ensure that children learn and develop well and are kept healthy and safe. It promotes teaching and learning to ensure children are ready for school and gives children the broad range of knowledge and skills that provide the right foundation for good future progress through school and life. A new EYFS framework was implemented in September 2012. The EYFS framework governs teaching and learning for children up to the end of the Reception Year and at this point all teachers are required to assess each child’s development in the following key areas:

communication and language

physical development

personal, social and emotional development

literacy

mathematics. Children are considered to have reached a good level of development if they reach certain early learning goals in all these areas. The outcome of these assessments is provided in the EYFS profile at the end of the summer term and the first results on the new EYFS were published in 2013. Table 5 in the appendix to this report contain details of the outcomes at the end of EYFS. Outcomes for children in Runnymede are excellent with an average result of 70.6% compared to the Surrey average of 66.2%. To ensure Good Levels of Development continue to improve across Runnymede, EYCS staff held conferences across the county to cascade information and best practice to practitioners. EYCS staff visit settings termly to offer bespoke support and advice around children’s learning areas. They also offer settings termly cluster meetings in Runnymede, to update on strategy, legislation, practice and recently these have focused on changes affecting Special Educational Needs. There is an Early Language package delivered to settings to help improve outcomes for children with speech and language concerns. Two settings within Runnymede will be part of the core groups this year and will receive an intensive package of support to improve practitioners’ knowledge and outcomes for children. One setting has also been selected to be part of a new Maths Champions project to improve both the staff confidence in using maths and the provision of maths opportunities within the setting. Ofsted recently provided training sessions for Surrey providers that were inspected and received either “Requires Improvement” or “Satisfactory” judgments (under the old framework). In Runnymede this was followed up with individual settings that attended and additional support has been offered for them to make the necessary changes and improvements. This enabled EYCS teams to provide tailored support to each setting with the desired outcome being a positive Ofsted inspection.

2.5 Ofsted inspection outcomes for childcare and early education settings:

Ofsted inspect all registered childcare and early education settings and Tables 6-8 contain details of the outcomes of these inspections for settings in this borough. Good and outstanding inspection outcomes for these settings are

5

higher than the Surrey average (table 6), are higher for non-domestic premises (table 7) and about the same for childminders (table 8).

2.6 Levels of qualifications of staff in the sector: the minimum requirement for

a leader of a group setting is the equivalent of a level 3 qualification or above. 50% of staff in group settings are required to have the equivalent of a level 3 qualification and there are no minimum qualification requirements for childminders. The Department for Education (DfE) are supporting the sector to raise the levels of qualifications across the sector and EYCS provides support, including bursaries, to improve performance in this area. Table 9 in the appendix to this report contains details of the levels of qualifications of staff in this borough. The levels of qualifications for group leaders are excellent at 95% at level 3 and above and are good for other paid staff at 58%.

2.7 Children’s Centres. There are 4 children’s centres covering this borough:

Chertsey Sure Start Children’s Centre

Sayes Court Sure Start Children’s Centre

The Haven Sure Start Children’s Centre

The Poplars Sure Start Children’s Centre 2.8 Partnership working: Sure Start children’s centres bring together services for

young children from birth to five years and their families in a multi-professional way.

They work with children and families across the community and also make direct contact with vulnerable families not accessing services.

In order to reach the neediest children, children’s centres take services into family homes and community settings used by families as well as offering them from the centre.

Children’s centres ensure that universal services are accessible to all but focus on supporting the neediest children and families.

Children’s centres play a significant role in early intervention and prevention services and make an impact on the life chances of children and their families.

2.9 Sure Start Children’s Centre Statutory Guidance: The DfE issued guidance

in April 2013 which describes how the core purpose of children’s centres is to improve outcomes for young children and their families and reduce inequalities between families in greatest need and their peers in:

child development and school readiness

parenting aspirations and parenting skills; and

child and family health and life chances. 2.10 Child development and school readiness: Children’s centres will:

use the results of the Early Years Foundation Stage Profile for the centre reach area and provide activities to improve areas of development

provide play and learn sessions, focusing on the prime areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage for universal and targeted families

work with local schools and early years providers to focus on the developmental needs of young children in the area

provide or signpost to early education and childcare,

promote the Free Entitlement for Early Education for eligible 2yr olds (FEET) and all 3 and 4 year olds

provide parenting support to families whose child is eligible for FEET

provide activities to promote the home learning environment

develop early language groups, supporting speech and language for children with developmental delay

promoting and link with Library sessions and programmes

provide links to the Portage and Traveller Education Service.

2.11 Parenting aspirations, self esteem and parenting skills: Children’s

centres will :

provide evidence based parenting programmes

deliver parenting support programmes

deliver adult and family learning courses - for example, English for speakers of other languages (ESOL), GCSE’s in literacy and mathematics

provide employment support - for example, CV writing, Job Club, volunteering opportunities

work with Job Centre Plus to promote job opportunities

provide home visiting for vulnerable families referred by agencies or self referred

provide parenting groups - for example, young parents and lone parents.

2.12 Child and family health and life chances: Children’s centres work in

partnership with health services, adult learning, providers and others, to run:

ante-natal and post-natal maternity services

breast feeding support - for example, Baby Cafe and support sessions

cook and eat courses with parents/carers and their children

cooking on a budget courses

health, exercise and nutrition for the really young (HENRY)

supporting health visitors 2.5 yr developmental checks held in the centre

pram walks

outdoor activity sessions and promoting use of local spaces and parks

smoking cessation programmes

adult learning courses - for example, first aid and safety at home.

2.13 Identifying and supporting target families in need of additional support: Children’s Centres work with health visitors and other partners to identify those in need of support and offer targeted activities and home visits to improve children’s outcomes. Target families could include:

lone and/or young parents

children on a child in need or child protection plan

families suffering from domestic abuse, drug or alcohol problems

families dependent on out of work benefits

families on very low income. 2.14 Working in partnership: The new framework recognises that children’s

centres may work together collaboratively to achieve better outcomes for families and to provide more economical services. In Runnymede borough the children’s centres work closely together to deliver services such as:

Parenting and HENRY (Healthy Eating and Nutrition for the Really Young) programmes, these are run on a rolling programme across the borough from all centres.

Adult and community learning courses run at all Runnymede children's centres, which all families from the borough are signposted to the appropriate course.

Runnymede Housing, Accent Peerless and Paragon Housing give children centre information to tenants and attend relevant centre managers cluster meetings to share information.

2.15 Performance data: Tables 11 and 12 of the appendix provide data on the number of children registered at the children’s centres in the borough, including those in the disadvantaged areas. This data is important as a measure of the centre’s performance which would be deemed as achieving a good outcome where 65% of children in the centre’s reach area are registered. Most of the centres in the borough have achieved this benchmark. All of the centres have been inspected by Ofsted to date and this has been against an inspection framework that was introduced before many had been sufficiently prepared to meet the Ofsted requirements. The current Ofsted inspection outcomes for this borough are:

Chertsey Sure Start Children’s Centre – Requires Improvement

Sayes Court Sure Start Children’s Centre – Requires Improvement

The Haven Sure Start Children’s Centre – Satisfactory

The Poplars Sure Start Children’s Centre - Good 3.0 Corporate Parenting/Looked After Children implications

Looked After Children are a target group for children’s centres and social workers are asked to liaise with children’s centres to consider how children can benefit from these services.

4.0 Safeguarding responsibilities for vulnerable children and adults

implications Children Centres are required to follow Surrey Safeguarding Children’s Boards procedures and comply with Ofsted inspection framework with regard to safeguarding children. Social workers are asked to liaise with children’s centres to consider how children under five subject to Child Protection Plans can benefit from services provided by the children’s centre. Children’s centre staff act as the Lead Professional under the authorities Early Help arrangements.

5.0 Public Health implications The Child Health Programme (CHP) is a core component of Public Health concerns and children’s centres work in partnership with NHS services to implement all aspects of CHP.

6. CONCLUSION :

9.1 This report provides an overview of the early years and childcare services in

the borough of Runneymede and contains information on how services are supporting children and families to access early education and childcare services in order to improve outcomes and reduce inequalities. The report indicates that there is a high level of take up for services and that for most children the outcomes are good but there is a need to provide focussed support for vulnerable children, including those that live in areas of disadvantage

Take up rates for Runnymede are lower because Surrey resident children accessing Free early education in neighbouring Local Authorities are not included, nor are children living in neighbouring Local Authorities accessing free early education in Surrey. There are more children from neighbouring Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead accessing free early education in Surrey settings than Surrey children accessing free early education in Windsor and Maidenhead settings. For every ten children living in Windsor and Maidenhead accessing provision in Surrey, there are three Surrey children accessing provision there. From a survey of parents of reception year children, it is estimated that 1% of children do not access free early education before entering school. For the 2013-14 cohort, this is equivalent to 174 children. Half of parents that have not accessed free early education prior to reception year wanted to but couldn’t because the setting
