Early Years Entitlement (EYE) including Working Parents 30hrs
Early Years Entitlement 30/15hrs (EYE) Funded hours are spread over 47.5 weeks of the year. All session fees include meals. Our current offer will be reviewed prior to each new term Autumn, Spring, Summer. To ensure pre-school can continue to offer a business model that will be open for all families, and continue to offer the Early Years Entitlement, we ask for voluntary payments for meals, extra curricular activities, and consumables.

Please note, children become eligible for the 3yrs EYE in the term after their third birthday, this also applies to the 2yrs EYE families who claim benefits.

Bath and North East Somerset council funding terms start on 1st September, 1st January and the 1st April.
All 30hr working parent codes must be obtained or reconfirmed before these start dates. 

Green Shoots strives to continue to offer high adult to child ratios, 15/30hrs funded hours, as well as parental choice of sessions, therefore we do ask for payments for services. All children deserve high quality education, extra-curricular enhancements, access to healthy meals, and all consumables needed for their care, therefore these are inclusive in our offer. We ask parents to confirm their choice of funding agreement (each term: Autumn, Spring, and Summer) and sign to agree with our terms and conditions. We ask for 4 weeks notice to make any amendments to sessions, to change any chosen agreement, and/or to cancel a placement with us. Agreed fees will still apply during the 4 weeks notice.
