Notes:
Figures used are adjusted to estimate the number of children eligible for pre-school education. See background notes for details.
The number of children eligible for ante-pre-school is smaller than the number eligible for pre-school as children whose third birthday fell between January and March 2007 were under 3 at the time of the census and are included in the "2 year olds" category.
