The Survey of Childcare and Early Years Providers (SCEYP) is important for monitoring and evaluating childcare and early years provision. Covering group-based providers (private, voluntary and school/college/LA/other unclassified), school-based providers (those offering nursery provision and maintained nursery schools) and childminders, it provides a representative snapshot of early years provision in England. It helps the Government, including the Department for Education (DfE), understand the issues that providers face, informing development of early years and childcare policy. The DfE commissioned the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) and Frontier Economics to conduct the SCEYP 2019. The programme of research entailed two surveys. The main SCEYP 2019 entailed a large mixed mode survey, which could be completed either online or on the telephone. It collected data on a variety of topics such as staff-to-child ratios, delivery of Government policies including funded entitlements and Tax-Free Childcare (TFC), children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), staff qualifications and pay, and the financial side of providing childcare such as costs, incomes and fees. There were also a number of core questions such as the number of children registered at the setting. The short SCEYP was delivered online and on paper, and included questions on fees and Government funding received, as well as a small number of core questions, such as the number of children registered at the setting. The purpose of this short survey was to provide robust fee and funding estimates at a local authority (LA) level by aggregating data collected across this and the main SCEYP.
