Fees and funding
Early Years Funding – Schemes and Support available as of September 2024
From September 2024 the Government will provide funding for the following schemes.
Please note that children under 3 years old will need to meet set criteria to be eligible to claim early years funding. The universal early years offer of 15 hours a week (less hours if stretched) is only available the term following a children 3rd birthday. Funding will only be provided to children who have a valid funding code.
Children under the age of 3 years old cannot claim more than 15 hours of funding a week.
If a 2-year-old child is eligible for the Targeted and Working Parent Entitlement, we recommend claiming using the Targeted scheme, as this does not require reconfirmation with HMRC every 3 months. This advice is subject to change as the schemes are extended in September 2025.
Eligibility codes issued by HMRC remain with the child for the duration of their whole funding claim. Parents will need to reconfirm their codes every 3 months but they will not have to reapply for a new code as their child ages.
