Will the Minister confirm what the childcare staff-child ratio is for two-year-olds in Wales?

Answered by Deputy Minister for Social Services | Answered on 07/02/2024

The staffing ratios for regulated childcare in both day care and childminding settings are set out at Standard 15 of the National Minimum Standards for regulated childcare.  

There are no plans to align the staffing ratios for regulated childcare with childcare staffing ratios in England.
