Funding
Funding
All Aboard Nursery provides care and supportive education for children aged 3 and 4 who have presenting needs relating to difficulty with social communication.
Funding is achieved through Parents’ entitlement to the Universal 15 hours per week for 38 weeks a year, from the term after their child turns 3 years old. Places are also available for the 30 government funded hours available to working parents. Additional hours may be purchased over and above a child's funded entitlement at a cost of £7.50 per hour. Fees are reviewed on an annual basis.
The cost of nursery hours is met by government funding, but other services offered by the nursery are subject to a voluntary consumable charge. This charge is currently 50p per session and covers the provision of nursery snack. Invoices for additional hours and the voluntary consumable charge are sent out termly.
All Aboard Nursery are pleased to work in partnership on a shared care basis with other childcare providers such as mainstream nurseries and pre-schools, relatives, childminders and so on and funding entitlements can be split across settings according to parental preference.
