Answer
The Department for Education’s Childcare and Early Years Providers Survey[1] collects data on the wages for childcare workers.
Tables providing figures on the mean wage for childcare workers for 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013 are provided in the attachment. The survey was not carried out in 2012 and so no figures are available for that year.
Figures showing the median wage for childcare workers in each of the last five years are not readily available.
