Official 2024/25 achievement rates for Early Years Educator, published by the Department for Education. Learner numbers shown - providers with fewer than 30 leavers are listed separately. The DfE rounds achievement and leaver counts to the nearest 10, so a rate marked * is approximate and the true figure may be lower. Only providers delivering in England are listed; the DfE publishes each provider's rate nationally, not per site. How this table works
