Question about Early Years Nursery Grant...?

Question

Does anyone know exactly how much this is??

Ie: If you pay £30 per day to send your child to Nursery how much does the Grant reduce this by?

Answer 1

it all depends what area of the country you are in.  In essex we receive £8.74 that covers 2 1/2 hours.

It doens't matter about the amount they receive, the grant they receive covers 2 1/2hours so they have to reduce your hours you take for your child by 2 1/2.

ie if he goes to school for 5 hours a day you only pay for 2 1/2.  If they are asking you to top up your fees for those 2 1/2 you are grant funded for it is illegal and you should report them to your LEA

Answer 2

were i work its £8 a day, but it depends on ur nursery.

Answer 3

It's £12.50 per week, apparently
