Top providers in Lancashire by achievement rate

View the full Early years practitioner provider ranking

Official 2024/25 achievement rates for Early years practitioner, published by the Department for Education. Learner numbers shown - providers with fewer than 30 leavers are listed separately. Only 2 providers have enough 2024/25 data to be ranked for this standard, so this is a short table rather than a competitive field. 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 Lancashire are listed; the DfE publishes each provider's rate nationally, not per site. How this table works
