Parents can expect to spend more than £1,000 per child for care over the school summer holidays, , according to research.
A survey by the children’s charity Coram found that British families will be paying, on average, £1,049 for summer childcare for children aged from four to 14 – £635 more than they would pay for six weeks of after-school childcare during term time.
