Places available for 2, 3 and 4 year olds!!!!!

Under government legislation all children are eligible for 15 hours free childcare each week starting in the term after their 3rd birthday.

At the 2023 Spring Budget it was announced that the early education and childcare entitlements would be expanded to children aged 9 months and older over. Two phases of this expansion have already happened:

• Since April 2024, eligible working parents of 2-year-olds have been able to access up to 15 hours of free early education and care per week (over 38 weeks a year).

• Since September 2024, this has been extended to eligible working parents of
children aged from 9 months and above.

From September 2025 the final stage of the rollout will occur, with eligible working parents able to access up to 30 free hours per week (over 38 weeks a year) for children aged from 9 months old until they start school.
