Childcare sufficiency
Under the Childcare Act 2006, we have a legal duty to make sure that we have enough childcare available in Barnsley. This is so we meet demand and parents can work or get back into training.
A childcare sufficiency assessment (CSA) is a report about the amount of childcare in the borough. It maps the demand and supply of childcare.
You can read our CSA annual report for 2024 here. If you need to see reports from previous years please email infofis@barnsley.gov.uk.
