@Aimi thank you! Was it always starting in September? I swear it was meant to be earlier next year? X
30 hours term time only from the term after they turn 3 is available now 15 hours term time only is available the term after they turn 9 months 30 hours should start next September for 9 months + again term time only
Yeah think it was always sept! Also, if you need year round care, it goes to 22.5 hours free a week I think? So still possibility to use it spread over rather than all in term time :)
Ok, so we’ve found this confusing too. Our little girl is starting nursery in May and she will be just 9 months old and we understand we won’t get funding until the September but will it be 15 or 30 hours? Thats the bit we’re struggling with x
30hours for 3 year olds is already on play, 30 hours for all from 9 months is next Sept, however you should be entitled to 11 hours free right now, which came in to effect this September
