Early Years Funding Information
From 1st September 2025 most working families have access to up to 1140 hours of funding per academic year.
Families can access either 570 hours per academic year or 1140 hours per academic year. This equates to 12 hours per week or 25 hours per week depending on which funding model your family is eligible for. For example, this equates to 46 weeks of funding utilising 25 hours per week.
At Little Owls we implement a stretched offer for funding which includes all of the school holidays, apart from the summer holidays, within the academic year. Please note that the academic year runs from September to mid-July. Therefore, early education funding is not offered during the 6 weeks of the summer holidays.
At Little Owls the additional charges are for meals and consumables, which are optional. Parents can provide their own meals and snack and opt out of consumables if they choose, this charge includes but is not limited to two healthy snacks a day, equipment and resources for take homes (Christmas, Easter Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, graduation gifts and photos) access to the Famly app for daily communication with your key workers, online newsletters, event invitations, online photos and video updates, graduation ceremony, parent and grandparent events, story cafes, trips, internal visits and yoga sessions. Our consumable rate for families who benefit from these added extras is charged at £5.00 for a half day and £10.00 for a full day. The consumable fee is applied once children have reached the age of 2 years old.
