Fees, Funding & Sessions plus 15 or 30 Hour Funding codes -Sept 2025
The nursery year starts in September and runs through until July, this is called an academic year. Our nursery is open 8.50am to 2.50pm Monday to Friday during term time, which supports the school day and the school holiday periods are also the same.
We offer fully funded nursery places. Parents who can claim the early years funded entitlement can take their funding between the main nursery opening hours of 8.50am to 2.50pm. If your child is not old enough for funding or does not meet eligibility for the extended entitlement, parents are offered the opportunity to pay for a place at our nursery. Remember you may also be able to access other financial support towards your childcare costs, such as tax-free childcare.
ALL children are eligible for 15 hours of Nursery funding a week from the term after they turn 3 years old, this is called the "universal offer". Working parents of 3 and 4 year olds may be eligible for an extended entitlement of an additional 15 hours (often called 30 hours childcare).
From April 2024 working parents of 2 year olds may also be eligible for 15 hours a week of nursery funding from the term after their child turns 2 years old. This will increase to 30 hours from September 2025.
Please visit the Childcare Choices website for full details on early years funding: Childcare Choices | 30 Hours Free Childcare, Tax-Free Childcare and More | Help with Costs | GOV.UK
Other families of 2-year-olds may also be eligible for funding from the term after they turn 2 - this is called FEET funding in Surrey. Please go to the Surrey County Council website and search FEET or 2 year old funding for details on eligibility and how to apply online.
