Little Learners Pre-school operates a tiered charging fee, depnedent on your child's age. If your child is 2 years old the session cost is greater as we need a higher staff to child ratio therefore our @ year old session charge is £24 (£8 an hour) Our 3 year old + fee is £19.20 per three hour session (£6.40 an hour) We also provide a hot meal at a charge of £3.50 per day. Any extra hours outside your funded hours will be charged at these hourly rates.
The Pre-school accepts children on both two and three/ four year old funding, supported and working.
Every child is eligible to receive 15 hours free funding the term after their third birthday. The cut offs are as follows:
September - December birthdays - Free funding comes into effect in January
January to March birthdays - Free funding comes in effect in April
April to August - Free funding comes into effect in September.
Some children whose families are on a low income maybe eligible for funding the term after they turn two years old.
If you think your child meets the criteria for two year old funding the setting is able to make enquiries on your behalf or you can apply by clicking the link below.
Children aged from 9 months whose parents are working maybe entitled to 30 hours funding. To check whether you are eligible please go to the website below. Again this funding is available the term after the child turns 2, 3 or 4 but must be applied for the term before you wish them to start at our setting. So for example your child turns 3 in November and you want then to start in January, you must apply before the 31st December, if you apply after this date your child will not get their funding until the Summer term.
Just because you have a code it does not mean we will have a space for your child so we always recommend putting your child on our waiting list as soon as possible.
