Funded Education
Universal Entitlements:
All children aged 3 and 4 years are entitled to 570 Universal Hours of Early Education Funding (EEF) per year. From January 2025, at Edenhurst this will be stretched across 50 weeks per year so you will see this applied on your invoice as 11.4 hours a week.
Working Parents Entitlements:
Some parents of children aged between 9 months and 2 years are also entitled to up to 570 Working Parent Hours of Early Education Funding (EEF) per year. From January 2025, at Edenhurst this will also be stretched across 50 weeks so you will see this applied to your invoice as 11.4 hours a week. To receive the full 11.4 hours, children must attend 3 days a week. Please visit Childcare Choices at www.childcarechoices.gov.uk to see if you are eligible for this.
Extended Entitlements (30 Hours Childcare):
Some 3 year old children will also be eligible for another 570 hours if both parents meet the criteria required. To qualify for the scheme, parents must be working and each earning at least £120 a week (on average) and not more than £100,000 each a year. Please apply via the Childcare Choices website to confirm your eligibility.
At Edenhurst, from January 2025, this will only be offered to children who have older siblings in school, children who have registered for Reception or children who attend on a full time basis (5 days a week). This will also be stretched across 50 weeks and will be reflected on your invoice as 22.8 hours a week. To receive the full 22.8 hours, children must attend 3 days a week. Please see our Funding FAQs below for further information.
Children who do not meet the above criteria will still receive the current Universal Entitlement.
Tax Free Childcare
Parents in England can use the Tax-Free Childcare scheme alongside the 15- and 30-hour funded childcare options. This scheme allows parents to deposit money into an online account, with the government adding £2 for every £8 contributed. The arrangement is available to employed and self-employed parents, although eligibility is subject to certain income and employment conditions. Payments into the scheme are made from post-tax income and after employee National Insurance contributions. To check if you’re eligible and find out more, visit: www.childcarechoices.gov.uk

Edenhurst accepts childcare vouchers from providers including Edenred, Computershare, Sodexo, Imagine, Fideliti, and Care4. If you wish to use vouchers from another provider, please contact the Office, and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
