Fees/Funding
Funding and Fees
The Costs!
Children are required to attend at least 2 days per week to help us in providing your child with continuity of care.
Payment of fees is due on the 1st of each month and is payable in advance. Fees are calculated on an annualised 51-week basis and are therefore payable during bank and family holidays, sick days and the Christmas and New Year breaks.
Funding
Universal Funding All 2, 3 and 4 year olds are eligible for 15 or 30 hours of funded childcare the term after their birthday. This can be taken 15 hours a week over 38 weeks (term time only). 30 hour (extended) funding. In September 2018 the government introduced extended funding for many working parents of 3 and 4 year olds. To see if you are eligible, you will need to register online at www.childcarechoices.gov.uk and if you are eligible, you will be issued with a ‘code’. Once you have received your code, provide this to the Nursery Manager. The information given will need to be updated every three months. Free Early Education for Two Year Olds. Free Early Education for Two Year Olds (FEET) is offered for eligible two year olds. (Terms and conditions apply). If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Additional charges: The nursery will invoice for any additional hours attended and meals monthly for all children claiming 2years, 3 and 4-year-old funding.
The nursery will charge for Lunches: £10.00 full day funding session and £5 half a session. This is for all children claiming 15 hours or 30 hours free childcare. These are currently being reviewed
