15 Hours FEL and 2year old FEL
• At The Psalter Lane Nursery you can use your 15 hour FEL during the core morning or afternoon sessions (5 x morning or 5 x afternoon sessions or a combination of both).
• If you require a full day (2 x sessions) then there is a charge for the lunch time supervision cover 12.00pm -12.30pm (lunch is not provided).
• The full 15 hour FEL can be used over two and a half days, incurring a £12.00 charge for the lunch time supervision cover.
• You can choose to collect your child at 12.00pm and bring them back to nursery at 12.30pm to incur no charge.
• You can choose to add on paid sessions for Breakfast and After Nursery Club.
30 Hours EFE
If eligible for the 30 hour EFE, parents do not need to use all their funding.
• The standard Session Pattern (available for any number of core FEL sessions up to and including the full 30 hours 9.00am-3.30pm). This will incur a charge of £6.00 per day for lunch time supervision cover (lunch not provided).
• FEL does not cover any lunch time supervision cover costs.
You can choose to add on paid sessions for Extended Breakfast Club and After Nursery Club
Activity School
The Psalter Lane Nursery offers Activity School 9.00am – 3.30pm. This will only run if there is enough demand for it. The fees are charged at Standard Session Pattern. We do not offer the stretched offer to include FEL in Activity School.
FEL Terms and Conditions
If you take a family holiday during the 38 funded weeks, only 4 weeks of your holiday will be funded each year. If you wish to take additional holidays or extended leave to your home country and you would like us to keep your child’s place open, then we will need to charge you for any session not covered by the Funded Early Learning. Alternatively, you can reapply for a place at nursery when you return to Sheffield, although a place cannot always be guaranteed.
If you wish to leave nursery and or change provider midway through the term, you will be asked to give 4 weeks’ notice. Within this notice period you will not be able to claim FEL at another provider and you will be liable for any paid sessions.
We will ask you to sign a parental Agreement Form and pattern of attendance at the start of each year to confirm you agree and understand the terms and conditions including any charges and how many FEL hours per week and weeks of term you intend to claim at The Psalter Lane Nursery and if you are claiming any hours at another setting. A new form will need to be completed for any changes that happen.
Please note:
• 4 weeks’ notice is required to change any booked sessions or change of provider.
• Booked sessions will still be charged for if your child cannot attend for any reason.
• Bank Holidays will be charged for and FEL funding will be claimed for children whose pattern of attendance shows they would normally attend on these days.
• No refunds are given for non-attendance of paid sessions.
