Should you require any extra sessions, you can book your child a place. Payment is required prior to your child attending this session.
Late Collection
We understand that situations arise whereby you may be late to collect your child from nursery. Should this happen, please contact us as soon as possible. We consider the circumstances that lead to late pick up, however reserve the right to charge for persistent lateness (see Late Collection policy).
Nursery Education Funding
The government provides funding for eligible 2-year olds. All eligible children can start nursery the term after their second birthday. It is the responsibility of the nursery to check eligibility before offering a child’s place. Alternatively, parents can do their own eligibility check and email or print off proof of eligibility – Bradford’s online 2-year-old checker.
The government also provides universal 15 hours per week funding for your child to attend nursery during term-time only. Your child can access this funding the term after their third birthday.
- If your child’s birthday is between 1 January and 31 March – their funded place would start from 1 April that year.
- If your child’s birthday is between 1 April and 31 August – their funded place would start from 1 September that year.
- If your child’s birthday is between 1 September and 31 December – their funded place would start from 1 January the following year.
Qualifying parents are also able to claim an additional 15 funded hours on top of the universal 15 funded hours. Parents can apply for the 30 hours funding through an online application which includes an eligibility check – Childcare Choices.
Once you successfully apply online, you will be given a code which you then present to us. We then use the eligibility checking system to check the code is valid.
