Early Years Funding - Information for childcare providers
Early Years Funding has to be claimed by childcare providers on-line via our funding system. If you would like to claim funding, you can request to be set up via emailing: education.funding@n-somerset.gov.uk Please note we do not backdate funding.
Within the system you will be able to:
- Check the eligibility of parents or guardians to have funded childcare for their child under the 30 hours funding scheme.
- Make regular claims for payment from the Local Authority for the funded hours of childcare that you deliver under these schemes.
Check children for eligibility for two year old funding.
