Government funding explained
- We stretch government funding because we are open all year round. 15 hours over 38 weeks becomes 11.17 hours per week over 51 weeks; 30 hours becomes 22.35 hours per week.
- Funding starts the term after your child’s birthday. It does not include food or additional services, so a top-up fee applies to funded sessions.
- A funding-only place requires attendance on Monday and/or Friday, subject to availability.
- Working Family Funding: up to 30 hours per week for eligible working parents, from the term after a child turns 9 months. We need a valid eligibility code, parent information and National Insurance number by the deadline, and parents must reconfirm the code each term, otherwise full fees are payable.
- Universal Funding: up to 15 hours per week for all children from the term after they turn 3. No eligibility code is required.
- 2-Year-Old Funding: up to 15 hours per week for families receiving certain benefits or meeting specific criteria.
- The government hourly rate covers statutory childcare only, not food, activities and consumables, which we charge for in line with government guidelines. Hours above the funded allocation are charged at the standard rate.
- Check eligibility: gov.uk childcare eligibility. We also offer tax-free childcare: gov.uk tax-free childcare.
