Bream Early Learners, an inclusive and friendly setting. We believe all children from aged 2 years old and upwards should have equal access to quality childcare provision, which is good value for money, regardless of social or economic circumstances. As a non-profit making organisation we can offer excellent preschool childcare at very affordable prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In these financially challenging times we would urge prospective fee paying parents to check the childcare choices link below to see if a tax free childcare account could save you money.\u00a0 Until the proposed free 15 hours funding for all 2 year olds comes in April 2024 we can check whether your 2 year old is eligible for free funding for 15 hours under the Achieving 2 year old programme (A2YO).\u00a0 Please see the information below for full details on these schemes and the statutory funding schemes for all 3 year olds:<\/p>\n

The fee is charged as above including absences and holidays taken during term time. We do not charge during school holidays.<\/p>\n\n

Fees are charged one month in advance and should be paid on receipt of invoice. If payment is not received then regrettably your child will not be able to attend the sessions. Receipts will be issued upon request.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

If at any point you are beginning to struggle with paying your child\u2019s fees please contact the manager or the administrator as soon as possible so that they can help with the situation and offer advice.<\/p>\n\n

A definite number of sessions must be agreed in advance. Three weeks written notice is required if you wish to remove your child from the register. You will remain liable for all fees during the notice period. If your child is absent for more than three weeks without notification their name may be removed from the register.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>Funding for 2 year olds<\/strong>

Do you have a 2-year-old? Is your family on a low income?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

You could\u00a0be entitled to 15 hours a week of FREE early learning childcare. Funded free early years places are available for a number of two year old children from the term after their 2nd<\/sup>\u00a0birthday, for up to 15 hours a week.<\/p>\n\n

By taking up a funded place, your child will be in an environment where qualified staff will care for children of all abilities, encouraging learning through being creative, playing and exploring, which will continue to develop their skills to be ready for school.<\/p>\n\n

What is my child entitled to?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

If funding is available your child is entitled to have up to 15 hours a week (570 hours in a year). You will be able to use these hours during the school term up to 38 weeks.<\/p>\n\n
