Help with Funding
All 3 to 4-year-olds in England can get 570 free childcare hours per year. It’s usually taken as 15 hours a week for 38 weeks of the year. You can use your funded hours for a place at The Pre-School at Andoversford. Your child can be enrolled in full-day, morning or afternoon sessions to use the hours, however we suggest a minimum commitment of 15 hours per week to gain experience across a wider range of learning activities.
While planning to launch our new Early Years Hub, we have completed lots of research and visited other settings for advice. A key message which may be helpful for parents, was to choose a morning session rather than an afternoon if you would like your child to do a half-day. This is because social interactions and activities often start at the beginning of the day and children arriving later can find it challenging to join in with their friends when they have missed the start of something.
We offer the option to book additional chargeable sessions, which can be paid for by invoice, tax-free childcare schemes or you may be entitled to additional funding. More information about support with funding options can be found here:
