15 Hour Entitlement

All children are entitled to 15 hours of funded term time education from the term following their 3rd birthday.  Depending on your employment status, your child may be entitled to funding for 30 hours of term time education. 

Some families are entitled to 15 hours of funded education for 2 year olds, which is offered as 5 half day sessions (either 5 mornings 9:00am-midday) or 5 afternoons (12:45pm-3:45pm) Monday to Friday).

You can find out more about funding entitlements and subscribe to updates from the government regarding the new scheme here: https://www.childcarechoices.gov.uk/how-apply-help-childcare-working-parents . Details of the targeted 2 year old funding offer are available here: https://servicesguide.reading.gov.uk/kb5/reading/directory/advice.page?id=24_JrgkoQLA .

If you are not able to access a funded 2 year old space, the cost of a 15 hour space for 2 year olds is £141 per week for a 15 hour space.
