CHARGES FOR DAILY SESSIONS
There are three types of session you can choose from: morning, full day or a 2 1/2 session. The morning session includes lunch (which is provided by the parents as a packed lunch) and is 4 hours long. The full day session is 6 1/2 hours.
For 3 and 4 year olds, the Council provides funding for 2 1/2 hours of each session (3 hours from September 2010). The fee scales for each session are reducted in respect of this funding. For the under-3s, there is no Council funding available. We also have to maintain higher staff to children ratios; these facts are reflected in the higher fee scales. Council funding becomes available at the start of the term following your child's third birthday. The full fee scales are listed below:
Children under 3
| Morning | £26.00 per session | 8.45 to 12.45 |
| Full day | £37.00 per session | 8.45 to 3.45 |
