Yep. It goes in terms so you get them from the term after her birthday. Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky_Gibbon Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 On the council website it says that 3 year olds are entitled to free nursery care for 15 hours a week from the beginning of the first term after their 3rd birthday so it looks like they were correct.

GrannyGranny Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 They are correct OP. One of my kids birthday is on the 10th September so had to wait until Jan the next year to be entitled to free childcare. Also its meant to be term time only but most Nurseries spread it out over the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawny1970 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 we have the most expensive nursery costs in europe, its robbery, how people can work with children is beyond me, yet the goverment knows this and ignores it!!!!

GrannyGranny Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I have a friend in Sweden and you don't want to know what their childcare costs! Ok, I'll tell you.... No person pays more than 3% of their salary on childcare and its capped at approx. £130per month. Every child is guaranteed a pre-school place and they also start school at 7. Childcare is normally available 0600-1800 and some places do overnight and weekend places to suit the parents working patterns. Sweden spends more on pre-school childcare then it does on its defense budget! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
