How does it work?
Children at Nurture Outdoor Kindergarten are able to benefit from Government funding schemes.
If you qualify for funding, your child can become eligible for age-specific funding the month after the relevant birthday.
When could my child become eligible?
Children become eligible for age-specific funding in the term following their relevant birthday.
Term start dates are typically 1st January, 1st April and 1st September each year.
2-3 Year Olds
If eligible, children can claim 15 hours funding from September 2024, which totals 570 hours per year. This will increase to up to 30 hours funding from September 2025.
3-5 Year Olds
After their third birthday, all families in England are eligible for a total of 570 hours per year, that you can use flexibly (subject to T&C's).
Some families are eligible for a further 570 hours, and this can be used on a plan of 3 days or more per week.
