Extended Care
Our 15-hour-funded places are offered as 5 morning sessions or 5 afternoon sessions.
Our 30-hour funded places are offered as 8:40am-2:40pm, Monday to Friday.
We offer wraparound care at the end of the day 2.40pm – 3.10pm to bring the timings in line with the rest of school, this is often convenient for families with older siblings but not exclusive to these families. This supervision period is charged at £5 per day.
If you have been offered a 15-hour funded place, but wish your child to attend 5 full days (and you are not eligible for a 30-hour government-funded place) you will be charged at a rate of £16.50 per day 8.40am- 2.40pm. If you would like your child to have wraparound care at the end of the day you will be charged £21.50 per day. This is made up of £16.50 for the session and £5 for the end of day wraparound care supervision.
There are three ways to pay for these extra sessions. Parents can pay upfront, we send invoices out a half term in advance, or via Tax Free Credits. Alternatively, families who are eligible for 30 hours funding, currently being offered by the government, may use this funding.

Please be aware, if you are successful in gaining the 30 hours funding, you will need to access the government portal to get your unique code. The code needs to be given to the school office. A new code will need to be gained for each subsequent term before the start of the next new term.

Tax Free Credits
Priory Rise nursery care can be paid for using childcare vouchers. If you are not already part of this government scheme you will not be able to join after September 2018. We also accept Tax Free Credits, the new government initiative.
Lunch
For any children staying all day, a packed lunch from home will need to be provided. Alternatively, a hot lunch can be ordered through IFG Impact Food Group and we can provide further details on how to do this. A hot lunch for a child in our nursery is charged at £2.25 per day.
