These Regulations amend the Local Authority (Duty to Secure Early Years Provision Free of Charge) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/2147) (the “2014 Regulations”) and the Childcare (Free of Charge for Working Parents) (England) Regulations 2022 (S.I. 2022/1134) (the “2022 Regulations”), which provide for early years provision to be available free of charge. The changes follow the removal of overall effectiveness judgements for Ofsted inspections of state-funded schools (maintained schools, academies and non-maintained special schools) under section 5 of the Education Act 2005 from 2 September 2024.
