30 HOURS FOR 3 AND 4-YEAR-OLDS

The Government provides more help with childcare fees for working families. If your child is 3 or 4 years old and you are a working family with both parents working at least 16 hours per week, or alone working parent working at least 16 hours per week, then an additional 15 hours of funding may be available to you. This may provide you with a total of 30 hours of funding which can be shared with other settings & child-minders. (Parents/carers must apply for this each term or funding will cease).
