Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what proportion of early years' practitioners are male.
This question was answered on 9th January 2017
The most recent data held by the Department shows that from 2008 – 2013, the proportion of male staff in the early years workforce has consistently remained at 2% (Childcare Provider Survey, 2013).
