Fees
FUNDED FEES
There are now several types of funding available from the Government for childcare hours. These are known as 'working parent entitlement', '15 hours universal', '30 hours extended', and 'FEET funding'. For all funding types, except the 15 hours universal funding (which is accessible to all children the first term after they turn 3), parents must apply through their HMRC account for all other funded hours. Please note only the Government is able to confirm your eligibility, if you are successful, you will be provided with a code. We will request this, using our local authority funding form, along with other information associated with your funded application at the start of each term to make a claim on your child's behalf.
At Goslings Nursery School, we are able to accept up to 27.5 funded hours per week over the 36 weeks we operate a year. We accept all types of funding offers, but how many funded hours your child claims a day will be reflected in their session pattern, which is individualised to each child's attendance at the nursery.
There have been many changes to the funding recently, so please email us at: enquiries@goslingsnursery.co.uk if you require further information on how we apply funding at Goslings Nursery School.
If you need help with any information or support with your childcare fees or applications please ask Sarah Ray, The Nursery Manager. Funded hours are delivered at £0.00/hour to parents, however there is a charge applied to the non-funded part.
With effect from 1st September 2025 we have devised a new simplified funding and fee structure. This will work as follows;
Please note there is a small daily fee applied for the non-funded element and consumables.
