Nursery Education Grant
Any child between the ages of three (the term after their third birthday) and five (the term in which their fifth birthday falls) is eligible to receive the Nursery Education Grant, which gives 15 free hours per week for 38 weeks of the year. Millfield will claim the grant on your behalf and it is universal to all three- and four-year-old children.
Under the Nursery Education Grant Scheme, some free childcare places are available. Please contact us for details.
30 hours funding: In September 2017, the government introduced 30 hours of funding for 38 weeks of the year for eligible*
parents who have a child aged three or four (the term after a child's third birthday). Contact us for information about how you can use the 30 hours at Millfield and how to claim.
