Summary Statistics for Schools in Scotland, No 5: 2014 Edition
This contains the results of the annual pupil census, annual teacher census, early learning and childcare data and school estates data.
Table 4.2 below shows that around three quarters of children at eligible ELC centres had access to a GTCS registered teacher during census week (74.3 per cent, up from 72.8 per cent the previous year). This includes children whose access was provided by external teachers on an ad hoc or occasional basis (i.e. non-regular). Some local authorities only ensure access to teachers for 3 and 4 year olds. The number of children with access to a teacher as a proportion of just 3 and 4 year olds (rather than all children) is 85.0 per cent.
