Thank you to everyone who completed our recent survey telling us how this is or isn’t going to work for families (the survey is now closed).

We are sharing these findings with the Department for Education, hoping to highlight the reality of the situation with key decision makers.

We will of course also be sharing the results with you, so do keep an eye out here and on our social channels 👀.

The government has been reviewing the system, and you’ve fed into our research, telling us what is and isn’t working.

The survey is now closed, and we’ve already shared your responses with the UK government. We’ll be sharing key findings with you soon – so watch this space.
