Childcare in Perranporth
Perranporth has 2 pre-schools and 1 after-school club. Ofsted has inspected 1 of them, and rated every one Good or better, 1 of them Outstanding. 2 have never been inspected, which usually means recently registered. Across Cornwall there are 31 places per 100 children under five, about the same as England as a whole at 32.
Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Cornwall, divided by the children aged 0 to 4 who live there at the 2021 Census. It compares areas; it is not a count of free places today. It also leaves out the 127 school nursery classes across Cornwall, because nobody publishes how many children they take.
