Last updated 4 years ago
Conservative Party Manifesto 2019, p.52We will offer wraparound childcare for Forces families.
Our verdict
- This is a promise that the government will offer childcare for military families covering the periods before and after the school day, so-called ‘wraparound childcare’.
- In July 2020, the government announced a planned pilot scheme of wraparound childcare for service personnel based in Buckinghamshire from September 2020, with further schemes expected in 2021.
- With a pilot scheme planned for 2020 and more anticipated in 2021, this policy is ‘in progress’.
