Funding 

All children are entitled to a minimum of 15 hours per week from the term after their 3rd birthday, this is called Universal childcare funding (38 weeks an academic year), and some children are entitled to a further 15 hours per week. There will also be some children who are entitled to funding from the age of 9 months old (although we cannot take children until they are 2.5 years old).  If you are claiming for funded hours, you will be passed an EY2C form to complete, when your child starts or if your child becomes entitled. You will also be required to fill one in if there is an increase/decrease in the hours they attend and if any details for the child/carer change (i.e., name/address).  You must complete the EY2C and return it to us by the date advised by the administrator to ensure that you are able to claim your entitled hours.  If you do not, then you may be invoiced for sessions. We do not accommodate Banked or Stretched Hours at Pensilva Pre-school. More information about childcare funding and tax free childcare are available in our 15 and 30 Hours of Funded Childcare and Tax Free Childcare leaflet. 

Fees 

Any session fees not covered by funding will be invoiced between the 20th and 25th of each month for the following months fees and payment is required by the 7th of the month they are applicable to.  As part of the new start pack for your child/children you will be requested to sign a fees and funding form as well as review and consent or refuse the £1 a day voluntary consumable fees.

Any queries regarding completion of the funding forms, fees or invoices please speak to the administrator.
