Fees and Funding
​Fees are payable as stated on your seasonal termly invoice.
​We require payment by the date on your invoice or your child could lose their preschool place.
All three and four year olds are eligible for government funding of 15 hours per week, there are also certain situations and criteria where children from 9 months are entitled to 15-30 hours.
Our Southborough setting is open term time and during school holidays. Our Bayhall Road, St Johns and Culverden pre-schools are open term time only, all close for bank holidays. You will not be charged for these closures. All other absences must be paid for.
We require a period of one months notice for cancellation of places.
We must insist that children are picked up promptly at the end of their session. Anyone collecting their child late will be expected to pay a charge of £15.00 per 30 minutes or part thereof. Should it be necessary for a member of staff to stay late as a result of a parent/carer collecting their child late, then the parent/carer will also be required to pay for the extra cost of that member of staff.
​
If you have any queries or issues about these payment terms please don’t hesitate to contact Hayley Coombes or Alice Penfold and we can sort out a personal payment plan for you.
