To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-40593 by Natalie Don-Innes on 30 September 2025, when it will publish a full report on the evaluation of the early learning and childcare expansion to 1140 hours for the period 2018-25.
As stated in the answer to S6W-40593, it is our intention to publish our overarching report on the Early Learning and Childcare (ELC) 1140 expansion evaluation for the period 2018-2025 in the coming weeks. This report will draw together findings from across the main strands of the outcomes evaluation, including the Scottish Study of Early Learning and Childcare and parent and carer surveys carried out before, during and after the ELC expansion.
