All children are eligible for 15 hours Universal Early Years Government Funding the term after they turn three. In addition, some children may be eligible for extra funding via the Government’s Extended 30 hour working parent scheme. Harpsden Woodland Pre-School is a registered charity and we try to keep our fees as low as possible. Please note that at present the Committee has agreed not to charge for certain sundries, consumables and extra activities that are not covered by the free childcare entitlement funding from OCC * but this remains subject to change with at least 6 week's term-time notice.

The eligible funding windows remain as follows for all age-related funding:

Date of birthday range:                 Entitlement starts from:

1 April - 31 August                         September

1 September - 31 December        January

1 January - 31 March                      April

Please note: Any hours over and above the 15 hours (for those not eligible for 30 hours) are charged at the full rate.

Families in receipt of certain benefits may be able to claim 2 year old funding.  We can claim extra funding through the Early Years Pupil Premium scheme to support children’s development, learning and care and the Disability Access Fund. Children are eligible for EYPP if their parent/s are in receipt of certain benefits.
