Charging and Funding Information

If you wish to apply for a funded space, when completing your registration form you must include your eligibility code, the parents’ national insurance numbers and dates of birth. Parents must reapply for eligibility codes roughly every three months via HMRC to ensure that their code is within the eligibility period for the next main term being claimed for. Parents MUST apply before the following deadline dates and the code must have a start date on or before:

·       31st August for the Autumn term

·       31st December for the Spring term

·       31st March for the Summer term 

Little Pickles will notify parents when new registration forms need to be completed and returned.  Please use the following link to check your child’s eligibility: https://www.gov.uk/help-with-childcare-costs/free-childcare-and-education-for-2-to-4-year-olds

Funded spaces are available every day between 9am and 3pm at Ebrington. Little Pickles will use your child’s funded entitlement first and any hours taken over and above the funded entitlement will be charged at £7.00 per hour.

We offer funded places for working parents of 2, 3 & 4 year olds, universal ‘free’ 15 hours per week for 3-4 year olds and Funded Early Education for Two Year Olds where applicable.
