Notes:
Centres were asked whether they provide pre-school education "following the Scottish 3-5 curriculum". Those that said yes were asked whether this was "as a local authority managed school or centre", "as a partner provider offering places funded by the local authority" or "neither".
Centres that did not respond to the census but that were still registered with the Care Commission and were listed in the pre-school teacher census of September 2007 as providing pre-school education are included in this table (102 centres).
"Pre-school class - other public" are centres that appear to be in the public sector but that said they provided pre-school education in partnership with the local authority. This category includes pre-school classes in grant-aided schools and nurseries where it was not known whether they were attached to a school. It may also include some local authority nurseries, playgroups and family centres that did not understand the question about whether they were a local authority or partnership provider.
