Fees: Nursery

 

New Government Early Years Entitlement Summary:

 
The new funded models entitles children aged nine months and above to access up to 30 hours of free child care per week over 38 weeks of the year.
 
At Jack and Jill Nursery School these hours are offered through different models of fully funded nursery attendance, either through a term time plan (38 weeks) or a stretched full year model. See the nursery school term dates page for further information.

Additional charges apply for extra hours beyond those included in the models as well as for meals and consumables ie nappies, creams, etc if required. These are excluded from the Government funding scheme but parents are able to provide food and all consumables from home, meaning no charge for such items will be incurred.

Eligibility begins at the start of the term following your child’s birthday (or becoming 9 months old) .
Relevant eligibility dates are:
