Pre-schools

Table 6.1 shows that there were 92,030 children registered for pre-school places funded by the local authority at September 2010, and that 97.1% of eligible children were registered for the ante-pre-school or pre-school year of pre-school education. These figures are based on a series of estimations and some children may be counted more than once if they are registered to receive local authority funded pre-school education at more than one centre.
