Free Childcare Arrangements
The Local Authority (LA) is required to secure free places offering 570 hours childcare a year, over no fewer than 38 weeks of the year, and up to 52 weeks of the year, for every eligible child in the LA from the relevant dates outlined. Children are eligible for free childcare from the relevant dates (outlined below) up until the beginning of the term following their fifth birthday.
With regards to the age criteria, pupils will be eligible as follows:

The school can accommodate a maximum of 13 nursery children per session. We offer 30 hours free childcare as an extension to the universal 15 hours free childcare for families that qualify for this provision. We do not offer additional hours on a ‘pay as you’ go service.
