Children attend Monday to Friday in term time. There is no maximum limit on the number of hours a child can attend, and sessions can be Nursery Education Funded [NEF].
All 3- and 4-year-old children are entitled to 15 hours of free early education and childcare per week. Some 3- and 4-year-old children are also entitled to an additional 15 hours per week (30 Hours Childcare). NEF spaces are funded by the Government and/or paid for at a rate of £15 per 3-hour session. This ensures that the child has continuation of childcare provision. To promote this, we will not take children for less than 3 sessions (9 hours) a week.
Sessions times are:
- 5 morning sessions of 9.00am – 12 noon[15 hours] or
• 5 afternoon sessions of 12 noon – 3.00pm[bring a packed lunch] [15 hours] or
• 5 extended sessions of 9.00am – 3.00pm [30 hours] [bring a packed lunch]
