Our nursery just has a fee table with a rate by age and then a reduced rate for the same age but for the universal funding which from memory was about £400 less a month - yours must have something similar?

I just accepted getting any discount of the colossal cost of our nursery bill was good. It was clearly not ‘free childcare’ and I think government would be better to just say it’s subsidising it slightly than all this nonsense of signing extra agreements for stuff. Especially given some people unfortunately assume it’s actually free childcare and are bitterly disappointed.

I used to get the specific hourly discount - I am not sure I was meant to see the value though.

That what you’re looking for?

I haven’t checked the figures in there vs discount we get but assume it’s that and whatever 38 weeks etc.
