"Our children and families are at the heart of everything that we do"

Wraparound Childcare (2 Year Old's)

Golden Ticket Funding (Families receiving government support) - From the term after your child's 2nd birthday, they may be eligible for 15 funded hours per week of early education for 38 weeks of the year (i.e. 570 hours).

Here is an example: 

If your child's 2nd birthday is 10th January then you must apply before 31st March for your child's funding to start immediately at the start of the next new term (April). We are still able to take the children if the funding has not been applied for before this deadline, however the funding will only be available from the date of your Golden Ticket Letter.

Working Family Funding - Since September 2024 it is now possible for children 9+ months to receiving funding through the working family criteria. This now means that providing a parent has applied for the funding before the start of the term that their child turns 2 (1st September, 1st January, 1st April) we can accept the child from the day of their second birthday and cover the cost of sessions with your funding.

Here is an example: 

If your child's 2nd birthday is 10th January and you applied for funding before 31st December then we will be able to admit your child into nursery from 10th January.

Please click the image below to be directed to the eligibility checker online for both qualifying areas. If you do qualify for funding you will then have access to a verification code which you will need to provide nursery with so that we can use it to receive the funding on your behalf.

If you do not qualify for any of the 2 Year old funding, there is still the option to pay for the sessions.
