Securing Sufficient Childcare in Southend-on-Sea

The Childcare Act 2006 places a duty on local authorities (LA's) to secure sufficient childcare for their community. To understand the needs of their community, LA's must undertake a Childcare Sufficiency Assessment (CSA) annually. This must be published on the Council website and made publicly available.

To find out more about sufficiency in Southend, please visit the Southend Learning Network website.
