MagicStar Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 As Sam Gyimah moves to the Ministry of Justice and with Justine Greening as Education Secretary, what now for the childcare sector? http://www.conservativehome.com/parliament/2016/07/all-the-latest-junior-ministerial-appointments.html So many questions.., What happens about the funding review that was due to be published next month? How does this affect 30 hours funding? Etc... I'm sure there's never a good time for change, but with all what's going on in our sector, the timing could the timing be any worse? Having worked at the DfE, I'm worried that if past experience is anything to go by, we could be in for a delay in any expected announcements whilst the new ministers and Secretary of State reviews things and get to know their new department.

Cait Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Having watched 'Yes, Minister' and 'Yes, Prime Minister', I'm almost sure that it's the private secretary and the department that keep everything going anyway. I don't think any changes will happen quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
