Full-Time Nursery
30 Hour Funding
The 30 hour funding code is used to pay for your child's full-time Nursery place. If you don't have a code, you will be required to pay for the full-time place.
Who is the 30-hour funding scheme for?
The government has extended the free 15-hours childcare funding to 30-hours for eligible working families. More information about eligibility can be found on the Newham council website here: https://families.newham.gov.uk/kb5/newham/directory/advice.page?familychannel=3&id=2bRwtEwAVoc

What do I do with my 30-hour code?
If you have applied for a full-time place, please provide your 30-hour code to the admissions officer and office manager at the academy before your child starts. If you do not supply a code, you will automatically be charged admission fees.
