Nursery Education Funding
At Bopeeps Preschool we offer places for 2, 3 & 4 year olds on a term
time basis..
In line with the government scheme we offer free government Nursery Education Funding (NEF) for children
who are 2 years and above that meet the various requirements.
Typically the funding begins the term after each
child’s birthday unless the parent(s) are currently working and satisfy
the conditions set out by the government. Children who are not yet eligible for grants may
(depending on their age) may register for a place which will be charged at a
sessional rate.
30 Hours Funded places
At both settings we offer 30 hour places for those who satisfy the
working parents critera.
There are quailifying criteria for these places to be funded and
information can be found on the government web site here...---30
hour free childcare.
Those not qualifying for working
parents places
If you do not qualify for the working parents
places then there are two other options available;
If your child is between 3 and 4 years old and you live in England, you
can get 15
hours of free childcare a week for 38 weeks of the year.
If you or your child get extra support, you may be eligible for free
education and childcare for 2 year olds.
Paying for private
sessions/additional hours
If you do not qualify for free places
or need to pay for additional hours then the following applies:
At Bopeeps we offer places at two settings;
Blackheath (Mycenae House) and Welling (St MIchaels Community Centre).
As these are in different areas there are
different sessional rates for each, (Please enquire for latest sessional
rates).
Additional time e.g. to extend your session is not covered by the
government funding and is currently charged at £5 per half hour (charged
in 1/2 hour blocks). This fee is to cover staffing, rent and insurrance.
Sessional patterns
At both settings we offer flexiblibity in session times;
Between our openning time of 9am and closing time of 3:30pm you can
choose a 3,5 or 6 hour session at an appropriate start time.
Chargable extras
We do not charge for the extras that we provide such as visiting
providers of activities, Nappies, Wipes, Fruit and Snacks. However, we
do have a donations Jar where parents are able to contribute towards
these of a volunary basis.
We do however have a non-compulsory uniform that parents can purchase
such as T-shirts, polo shirts, Jumpers and book bag. Please enquire to
the latest charges for these as they are dependant on our suppliers.
Deposits/Admin charges
We do not charge a deposit scheme or admin charges for our services.
When a Child is ill
Parents are required to keep their children at home if they are ill and
must also inform the pre-school about any such illness. We strive to
protect other children from the risks of cross infections. Please refer
to the pre-school's policies and proceedures.
However, if in the pre-school, a child requires any medication for
treatment, our qualified staff will help administer such medication ONLY
with a written and certified consent from the parent(s). In other words
ALL parents must sign a consent form(s).
