Children from 3 years to minimum compulsory school age in formal care by care duration eustrat_bs_ccp__ilc_caindformal2

Time format:
Years
Unit:
Percentage (comparable)
Description:

This indicator shows the percentage of children from 3 years to minimum compulsory school age cared for by formal arrangements other than by the family, disaggregated by the weekly time spent in care. ‘Formal arrangements’ refer to the four EU-SILC survey variables:

  • Education at pre-school or equivalent
  • Education at compulsory education
  • Child care at centre-based services outside school hours
  • Child care at day-care centre organised/controlled by a public or private structure.

The definition of formal care excludes any arrangements without any structure between the carer and the parents (direct arrangements). When interpreting the data, cross-country differences in maternity/paternity/parental leave arrangements and minimum compulsory school age should be taken into account.
