  * The Childcare Act 2006 which focuses on The Early Years Foundation Stage, Ofsted Registers, Children’s centres and extended schools, duty on local authorities to ensure sufficient Childcare and information and free early years 3&4 year old funding.
  * Equality Act 2010 which relates to equal opportunities, ensuring different groups are treated fairly i.e in this case people of different races.
