Nurseries, pre-schools, childminders and other childcare providers can claim extra funding through the Early Years Pupil Premium to support children’s development, learning and care.
What it does
The Early Years Pupil Premium provides an extra amount of money to the nursery or pre-school for three and four year old children whose parents are in receipt of certain qualifying benefits or who have been adopted or are in care.
The provider can use the funding in any way they chose to improve the quality of the early years education that they provide for the children. This could include, for example, additional training for staff on early language, investing in partnership working with colleagues to further their expertise or supporting staff working on specialised areas such as speech and language.
The form has 3 pages and will take 2 to 3 minutes to complete.
