Nursery Funding

We understand that childcare is a significant investment, and we’re committed to helping families access the support they’re entitled to. At The Study Day Nursery, we proudly participate in government-funded schemes designed to make high-quality early education more accessible.

Early Education Entitlement (Universal Funding):

All children aged 3 and 4 years are eligible for 15 hours of free early education per week, for 38 weeks per year. This funding is available to all families, regardless of income, and can be used to help cover the cost of nursery fees during term time.

We’ll guide you through the application process and ensure your child’s hours are allocated smoothly and efficiently.

Working Family Entitlement (Extended Funding):

Families with working parents may be eligible for an additional 15 hours per week, bringing the total to 30 hours of funded childcare. This applies to children aged 2 to 4 years who attend a minimum of three full days per week at our nursery.

To qualify, parents must meet government criteria, including minimum working hours and income thresholds. We’re happy to help you check your eligibility and submit your application.
