Fees and Funding
Within session times, we provide the 15 hours of free Early Years Education Funding available for 3 and 4 year olds and the 30 hours Funding for families of 3 and 4 year olds who are eligible for this. We will require you to fill in your allowance forms (handed to you personally) on time, to ensure the Government pay your child’s fees directly to us. Failure to do so may mean we cannot keep your child’s place open.
We are also able to provide funded and non-funded 2 year old places.
Above this, our fees are competitively priced as we want as many parents as possible to be able to afford our fantastic early years education. Hourly rates are £6.00 per hour for all our other times and activities.
Payments
All fees must be paid monthly in either in advance or at month end. Once your child is booked in for their set hours per month, you must give one month’s notice before leaving/changing your child’s hours, to keep their place. It is very difficult to balance staff ratios, which takes careful advanced planning, to ensure we keep up with our excellent standards of care. Ad hoc hours can be booked on the day, depending on availability of spaces within our ratios and must be paid for on the day.
Registration
In order to register your child with The Lighthouse Preschool, please click on the link and return the form to us. We will then send you an offer letter which will need to be signed and returned to us to secure the place.
