It also restates previous gradings when quality themes are not assessed. 3 Comparator local authorities are Argyll and Bute, Aberdeenshire, Stirling, Scottish Borders and Highland Council. Comparator and national proportions currently available until January 2023. 4 Inspected, published and reported to Learning and Families Executive Sub Committee by 20 March 2023. Commentary: The national trend down is linked to higher expectations from Care Inspectorate inspections and introduction of the National Standard for ELC. National and comparator figures are now available for 2022/23 which show PKC out-performing comparator and national benchmarks.

Current Position The charts above illustrates the aggregated individual results of inspections over a five year period. 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 these charts. This summarises the proportion of settings that currently have a Good or better rating, based on the latest inspection for each indicator.
