The Early Years 麻花影视has issued a comment following the news that Labour has won the general election. 

Commenting, Neil Leitch, CEO of the Early Years Alliance, said:

鈥淭here is no doubt that Labour is entering government at a crucial and challenging time for England's early years sector.  

鈥淣urseries, pre-schools and childminders are less than two months away from the next phase of the early entitlement expansion, at a time when the sector continues to deal with the consequences of a severe staffing crisis and sustained underfunding. As such, clear and decisive action to address the multitude of challenges facing the early years has never been more urgently needed. 

鈥淎nd while Labour鈥檚 manifesto includes a commitment to increase primary school-based nurseries, we at the 麻花影视are absolutely clear that this must form part of much wider plans to support the sector and safeguard its future, underpinned by increased early years funding and a comprehensive workforce strategy. 

鈥淲e welcome today鈥檚 election result as an important opportunity for a fresh start, and look forward to working closely with the new government to support the meaningful action needed to ensure that our vital sector is able not just to survive, but to thrive.鈥�
