Part - Time Education
All children have the right to a free, part-time, good quality early education place the term after their third birthday. Part-time means a minimum of 10 hours a week, for around the same number of weeks as the normal school year.
Registration: |
For parents to claim the free time place your setting must be registered with CSIW. Places are available for children in reception and nursery classes in schools, day nurseries, playgroups, Cylchoedd Meithrin and childminders linked to an accredited Children Come First Network. |
Fees: |
Parents are not expected to contribute towards the cost of these places. If child/ren already attends an early education setting when she/he becomes 3, the fee will be reduced. Parents will have to pay for any service or childcare on top of the free education part-time place. |
