Data access problem for families

摘要

The chair of the Public Accounts Committee has warned too many local families are missing out on free pre-school education because they are not being given the information they need. Margaret Hodge said the Department for Education must make sure all families receive their entitlement and urged parents to make informed choices about what is best for their child. 'It is completely unacceptable that some parents cannot access the free education unless they agree to pay top-up fees for more hours,' she said.
