How Does Funding Work?

As of September 2025, some working parents may be entitled to up to 30 hours of funding per week, if they meet the certain criteria.

Funding can be attained for children 9 months and over, until they go to school. You must apply for these hours via the Norfolk council website to ensure the funded hours are applied.

​

All children ages 3 and over are entitled to 15 hours of free childcare in preparation for school, no code is required. If you meet certain criteria you can apply for for an extra 15 hours, adding up to 30 hours per week.

​

We offer 15 & 30 hours of government funding for those eligible. Please ensure you have received your eligibility code before notifying us of your entitlement.
