Colwich Playgroup - “Giving your child a good start”

Colwich Playgroup

We can accept payment by cash, cheque or employer voucher & are registered to process Nursery Education Grant Flexible Funding for 3-4 year olds and Think2 funding for eligible two year olds. 

Invoicing & Payment Terms

Invoicing of fees is done half termly in advance.  We ask parents to select sessions to suit their needs and these sessions are then held for your child for the current half term.  (These sessions are chargeable whether they attend or not).  Extra sessions can also be added during the term on a weekly or ad hoc basis, subject to availability.  We are happy to offer flexible payment terms to suit your needs.  Details of our fee structure is available on request.

Invoicing

We are currently registered to accept Computershare, BusyBees, YouatWork, Care 4, & Edenred employers childcare voucher schemes.  We are happy to consider other relevant schemes upon request.

Employer Vouchers

We are registered to accept government Nursery Education Grant Funding (also known as flexible funding) in line with the current local authority arrangements.  This entitles parents to 15 hours of free funding at the setting for which we offer a range of options.  Proof of identity & age is required.  For information on Think 2 funding, eligibility criteria etc, please see wwwww.staffordshire.gov.uk/think2

Nursery Education Grant (NEG) Funding

If we are asked to reserve a place on our forward registers, to secure the place and hold sessions vacant, we may ask for a deposit of £30 which is refundable when your child leaves for school (after receipt of all outstanding fees).  Subject to availability, we will waive this for  new entrants starting within the current term.
