### Lot Information

Lot 1

The Welsh Government Flying Start Programme requires the provision of a part-time childcare place for all 2-3-year-old children residing in Flying Start catchments and Lower Super Output Areas (LSOA's). These areas are expanding from September 2022. It is imperative that, where possible, existing contracted Flying Start providers offer places to children identified within the expansion areas as these providers currently meet the Flying Start standards that are over and above the National Minimum Standards (NMS) and Guidance for regulated childcare
