* Nursery Education Grant and Childcare Vouchers

For children under 5 years of age on the first day of the month in which a term begins, the fees shown above will be reduced by the amount of the Minimum Funding Entitlement (formerly known as the Nursery Education Grant and to be £451.55 from the Autumn Term 2010) paid by the local authority to the school. Because the administration is a complex burden, not all schools participate in the Minimum Funding Entitlement scheme but Orchard House chooses to do so as a service to the parents of our youngest children. If possible the school will continue to do this, but this cannot be guaranteed. Where such grant is paid to the school, the actual fees payable to the school by parents are therefore £1,648.45 for a child in the Den attending mornings only, and £3,692.45 for a child in the Den attending all day and for a child in Lower 1.

The school also accepts most companies' childcare vouchers in part payment of the fees to the end of the term in which the child attains age 5.
