EYPP is extra funding paid to the nursery to support eligible children’s learning and development. Eligibility can depend on a number of factors. It is additional support for the nursery, rather than extra childcare hours or a payment to parents.
Please ask the nursery manager about an eligibility check. They can explain the information and consent needed and work with the council to check entitlement.
Early Years entitlement hours are funded by the government rate, which does not cover snacks, meals or consumables. We charge for these additional items.
