Funded childcare

Partou Woodlands Park Day Nursery & Pre-School is proud to offer funded childcare places 

Funded childcare is a government incentive fulfilled by Local Authorities which aims to provide financial support for eligible families accessing childcare at an OFSTED registered setting. Partou Woodlands Park Day Nursery & Pre-School work with Bradford Local Authority to apply childcare funding for eligible families.

Funding typically covers 15 or 30 hours per week for the 38 term weeks of the year across a maximum of 10 hours a day which will be applied in different ways depending how many weeks of the year your child is in childcare: 

  • Children who are in year-round childcare will receive “stretched” funding. This means that their 15/30 hours over 38 weeks will be stretched over 51 weeks of the year so children accessing year round childcare at Partou Woodlands Park will receive 11.17/22.35 hours of funded childcare per week. 
  • Children who have term-time only childcare places will receive 15/30 hours funding per week over 38 weeks of the year. Term-time only places are limited and are subject to availability.

Government funding for childcare only applies to the care fee (as described above). Meals & snacks and consumables fees are fully chargeable for all sessions including funded.  

Many families are eligible for government funded childcare, see our childcare funding guide for more information.

Can't fault the nursery. Have been consistently brilliant with my little boy from his very first day. His development has come on leaps and bounds and I don't think he'd be half as clever as he is without the nursery and their support. My son has built such strong bonds with all the staff, particu...

The staff in her room are lovely, and have really taken time to help them settle, get to know their personality and needs, and supported with toilet training.

The staff and facilities at Woodlands are great! Our child is 3 and currently in the preschool room, but has been since was 11 months old. Each room has met her needs and provided her with fun and plenty of chances to develop. She loves the forest school most of all!
