Operating an early learning and childcare setting (including out of school care and childminders) during Covid-19

As we move through the Scottish Government’s route map to recovery, the restrictions of lockdown will ease, however the legacy of the pandemic means that there are additional measures to support the safe delivery of ELC now and beyond phase four of the route map.  In response to this changed landscape, we have developed ‘Key Question 5’, a self-evaluation resource and tool which asks you to evaluate how well you are supporting children and families during Covid-19.  This is the only Key Question we expect ELC providers (including out of school care and childminders) to compete.

Care Home Day 2020
