We have worked closely with London boroughs to produce a common template for their Childcare Sufficiency Assessments. We hope this will enable boroughs to effectively intervene in their local markets, provide a more accurate picture of London's childcare provision and help families find the childcare that's right for them.

The London Early Years Datastore supports completion of Childcare Sufficiency Assessments (CSA) by providing data at a borough level including early years providers and places, take up of the free early entitlement and providers' OFSTED ratings.

Childcare demand: drivers and projections

This GLA Economics paper identifies the drivers of formal childcare demand and provides London level projections of formal childcare demand. This has provided the evidence base for the first set of London level projections of formal childcare demand. Historic data on formal childcare use and projected future childcare demand for London by age group of child, and for 0-14 year olds are available on London Datastore. Click here to read the paper.
