Additional Charges
We carefully structure our timetable in order to help parents maximise their 30 free hours funding. However, in order to enjoy the full Preparatory School benefits, additional charges are made for specialist, high-quality teaching provision including Dance, MFL, Games, Swimming and other visiting specialists. Additional charges also apply to those teaching hours which fall outside the minimum funding provision.
About Funding
*Your child will automatically receive 15 hours funding the term following their 3rd birthday. To claim the additional 15 hours, you will need to visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk to check your eligibility and apply.
Deductions are made from the school fees on qualifying for the 15 hour or 30 hour free childcare entitlement, once an eligibility code has been obtained from 30 hours free childcare - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Please contact the office for further details, who will be happy to talk you through the process.
