Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate his Department has made of the potential effect of occupancy levels in early years settings in the January census on early entitlements for the spring term.

I refer the hon. Member for Hampstead and Kilburn to the answer I gave on 5 October 2020 to question 97657.

Further details of our plans for funding in the spring term 2021 will be announced as soon as possible.
