Work should be carried out to establish if nursery workers switching employers poses a risk to the Scottish Government ’s flagship childcare, MSPs have said.
Ministers had pledged to increase the amount of free early learning and childcare eligible pre-school children receive to 1,140 hours a year – with this achieved across Scotland by August 2021.
A Holyrood Committee said while meeting the 1,140 hours target had been delayed because of coronavirus, the policy had been “rolled out despite the challenging circumstances of the pandemic”.
