Details.
All 3 to 4-year-olds in England are eligible for 570 funded hours per year up until the term that they start Reception or reach compulsory school age, the term following their 5th birthday. There are no earning or work requirements. Hungry Caterpillars spreads this funding throughout 51 weeks of the year, providing 11.18 hours per week. You will have access to this funding from the term after your child turns 3. The funding is automatic and your chosen childcare provider will arrange it.
