15 and 30 Hour Funding
The Marmalade Schools all offer the government 15 hour and 30 hour funding Nursery Education Grant. Children who take a place at the Marmalade Schools when they qualify as a 3 or 4 year old will receive the Universal 15 hour free offer provided parents accept the package of agreed services. This package includes the extra time above the free offer, the high staff to children ratios, highly qualified staff and peripatetic teachers that form a key part of the Marmalade Schools Curriculum.
The 30 Hour Funding offer is also offered to parents who meet the much stricter government eligibility guidelines, again subject to accepting a package of agreed services.
The Marmalade Schools also offer the 2 year old grant for working parents provided the parents are eligible and have applied through the government website for the code. Parents will also need to accept a package of agreed services to benefit from this provision at the Marmalade Schools
For parents who are looking for the Universal Funded Offer who do not wish to agree to an agreed package of services please contact the Wandsworth, Hammersmith & Fulham or the RBKC Family Information Service to find an alternative provider who can offer a free place.
