UK chancellor urged to address £100K childcare threshold
A report criticizes the UK government's childcare policy threshold of £100,000, which allows families where both parents earn below this amount to access 30 hours of free care. Researchers warn that the threshold will rise to £124,000 by 2030, leading to more families artificially suppressing earnings to retain entitlement and potentially incentivizing some mothers to leave the workforce. The report suggests alternative solutions, such as partial or tapered childcare support, to address these issues.
