The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many non-British people received 15 hours of free childcare in the last financial year.

Answered by Olivia Bailey

The requested information on nationality is not held by the department.

Information on children under 5 registered for government funded entitlements in England and on providers and staff delivering them, is published in the ‘Funded early education and childcare statistics’ publication, which can be accessed here: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/funded-early-education-and-childcare/2025.
