Sue Robb of 4Children talks to Julie Laughton and Alison Britton from the Department for Education about the role of childminders in delivering the 30 hours free entitlement.
The summit, which is being held by Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray, Highland, Orkney Islands and Shetland Islands councils, will help identify the current challenges and draw up an action plan to address the problem.
This solution could include paying extra for teaching staff and the possible introduction of a north ‘weighting allowance’ similar to that in London. The summit is set to take place on 7 October.
Aberdeen City Council Leader Jenny Laing said: “Many councils in the north and north-east of Scotland are experiencing higher than normal levels of teacher shortages – particularly at senior management levels.
“Whilst not yet at crisis levels it is nevertheless a serious issue that we want to tackle now to protect the interests of pupils.”
