'More Great Childcare': Sector overwhelmingly opposes ratio changes | Email bulletin | Nursery World (http://www.nurseryworld.co.uk/news/bulletin/nurseryworldupdate/article/1168740/?DCMP=EMC-CONNurseryWorldUpdate)

It is interesting to note that only a few of the big nurseries agree with the plans - all other commentators are united in their concerns.

I think that has been happening across the board. Ratio numbers hit you first as a concern because it is mentioned in relation to offering cheaper care for more work.
