Abstract	This bulletin, which is published jointly by the Scottish Education Department (SED) and the Social Work Services Group, gives information on the provision made for children aged 5 years or younger in education authority nursery schools and departments in Scotland. Additional data on local day nurseries, preschool playgroups, and childminding facilities are included. Data are presented in a series of tables. Tables 1-3 provide data on nursery school provision and pupil enrollment in Scotland as a whole between 1979 and 1990. Tables 4-8 present data on school provision and pupil enrollment by educational authority area. Data on day care services are provided in Tables 9-12, while Table 13 offers data on day care availability. The main points brought out by the tables include the following: (1) The number of nursery schools in Scotland is increasing; (2) The number of pupils in nursery schools increased by 33 percent between 1979 and 1990; (3) The pupil/teacher ratio was the same in 1979 and 1990; (4) Provision of nursery school varies considerably among education authority areas; and (5) The number of registered childminders tripled between 1980 and 1989. A list of bulletins published by the SED between 1988 and 1990 is included. (BC)
