Today, we’ve confirmed a £2 billion funding uplift for early years next year.

That includes an unprecedented increase in funding for our most disadvantaged children.

We've been clear - we will invest in our children’s future to break the link between background and opportunity.

NEW: Hundreds of children are being deprived of their liberty - and placed in illegal/unregulated care.

AirBnBs, security guards, restraints - and often costing the state £1m+
