No. Modern Surrey County Council covers its 11 current boroughs and districts. Places now within London boroughs such as Kingston, Richmond, Sutton, Croydon, Merton, Lambeth, Southwark and Wandsworth have historic links with Surrey but are not administered by Surrey County Council for nursery funding or SEND services.
How many childcare places are available across Surrey?
Surrey's 2025 Childcare Sufficiency Assessment recorded 35,069 places, of which 24,085 were occupied, giving an overall occupancy rate of 68%. The county estimated around 60 childcare places for every 100 children under 5. Availability still varies considerably by town and individual nursery.
What additional SEND funding can Surrey nurseries receive?
Surrey early-years settings can access Early Intervention Funding (EIF) where a child receiving funded early education needs additional SEND support. From 1 April 2026, Surrey's Disability Access Fund increased to £1,225 per eligible child per year for children receiving Disability Living Allowance who use funded childcare.
Are official Family Centres available throughout Surrey?
Yes. Surrey County Council states that every borough or district has at least one Family Centre. These council-backed services provide parenting support, family learning, wellbeing support and help for families experiencing additional difficulties.
