Labour Plans to Create Over 100,000 New Nursery Places with 3,300 New Nurseries
Jun 9, 2024, 07:51 PM
The Labour Party has announced a plan to create over 100,000 new nursery places for children from nine months old. This initiative, part of Labour's manifesto, aims to drive up standards and meet the growing demand for childcare. The plan includes setting up more than 3,300 new nurseries, many of which will be converted from primary school classrooms. Labour leaders, including Keir Starmer and Bridget Phillipson, emphasize that this move is crucial for providing the best start in life for children and supporting working parents. The proposal contrasts with the current Conservative policies, which Labour argues leave children's futures to chance. The announcement was reported by David Hughes.
