Interest Free Monthly Payments
Edenhurst offers an interest-free monthly payment scheme, which can allow for easier budgeting and help make payments more manageable. The fees for each term are split into three equal instalments and paid during the first three months of the term.
Sibling Discount
Where more than one child in the same family attends the School or Nursery, the younger sibling(s) will be granted a discount of:
● 5% off Nursery fees;
● Youngest child (in school): Full fees
● Next eldest sibling (in school): 7.5%
● Next eldest sibling (in school): 15%
● Next eldest sibling (in school): 20%
● Additional siblings: discuss with the Head
When children leave the school the discount will leave with them.
We also offer discounted school fees for members of the teaching profession and former pupils – please contact us for more details.

15 Hours Free Entitlement
Edenhurst will be continuing to offer the 15 hours Free Entitlement for 3 and 4 year olds. You can find information about eligibility by visiting childcarechoices.gov.uk.
Tax Free Childcare
The Tax Free Childcare scheme allows parents to pay money into an online account. For every £8 paid in by parents, the government will contribute £2, with an annual limit of £2,000 annually per child. The arrangement is open to working parents, including the self-employed. The scheme is paid for by parents from post-tax and employee NI contributions: there are certain conditions (see below) in terms of employment and income that parents must meet in order to be able to pay into the scheme.
Eligibility
You can usually get Tax-Free Childcare if you (and your partner, if you have one) are:
- in work – or getting parental leave, sick leave or annual leave.
- each earning at least the National Minimum Wage or Living Wage for 16 hours a week – this is £152 if you’re over 23.
This earnings limit doesn’t apply if you’re self-employed and started your business less than 12 months ago. If you’re not working, you may still be eligible if your partner is working, and you get Incapacity Benefit, Severe Disablement Allowance, Carers’ Allowance or Employment and Support Allowance. You’re not eligible if either you or your partner has a taxable income over £100,000. If you choose our Fees including Wraparound Care you could save in excess of £500 per term.
Please Note – Tax Free Childcare and Vouchers can only be used to pay for Wraparound Childcare and Edventures (holiday club). We are unable to accept payment for any school fees using these methods and the payment will be returned to your account.
If you have any questions about our fees or the funding that is available, please contact our Finance Officer, Ursula Bridgett, on 01782 619348 option 3, or email finance@edenhurst.co.uk
