CHART A1: Performance 2023/24: PKC, Comparator Authorities and Scotland 
1 Note that rounding of percentage figures may mean totals reported elsewhere differ slightly.
2 Note that comparator and national proportions include all services for day care of children whereas Perth and Kinross figures
only represent local authority and partner provider services (it is not possible to distinguish these in national statistics). It also
restates previous gradings when quality themes are not assessed in every inspection.
3 Comparator local authorities are Argyll and Bute, Aberdeenshire, Stirling, Scottish Borders and Highland Council. Comparator
and national proportions currently available until January 2024.
4 Inspected, published and reported to Learning and Families Executive Sub-Committee

Current Position 
The charts above illustrate the aggregated individual results of inspections over several
years.  Some settings will be inspected more than once during this period, and some Quality
Indicators are not covered in every inspection.   
The accumulated result of all these inspections is the current position of all Early Learning
and Childcare services in Perth & Kinross - shown in the charts below. 
These summarise the proportion of settings that currently have a Good or better rating,
based on the latest inspection for each indicator.
