Description

Expressions of interest are sought for an annual statistical survey of parents in England with children aged 0-14. The survey will collect data about parents' use, views and experiences of childcare and early years provision.

The Department for Education will contract for three annual surveys (2018, 2019, 2020), each with a follow-up survey, with a break clause after each annual survey.
