Urgent and important information...!

*REMINDER: Estimate Payments for the Summer Term 2024 for Working Parents of 2 Year Olds*__

*If you would like to receive an additional estimate payment to cover the working parents of 2 year olds during the Summer Term, please complete the form found here ?*Early Years - Nottingham City Council [ [link removed] ] *and return it to *[email protected]* no later than Wednesday 3rd April 2024.*? ?

With these children not being included in your current Summer Term Estimate Payments, and in response to calls from the sector to support business sustainability during this first term, this one-off estimate payment will be paid in April 2024 and will be for this new cohort of children only.*? *This payment will be 75% of what the funded hours would be for the Summer Term and payment for the actual hours of attendance for these children will be reconciled as part of your normal Balance Payment on 15th July 2024.? Please remember, that as per usual procedure, if your take up is less than your estimate payment you may be invoiced at the end of the term.? These children will then be included in your estimate payments going forward into the Autumn Term 2024, as a seamless inclusion of this expanding entitlement into our existing funding processes.?

?

*Working Parent Codes *

To all funded providers, just a reminder that we have been notified that some working parent checks are coming back with the incorrect information in ??Earliest Start Date? and stating the children can start in an earlier term. To help with this please remember that children can only take up a working parent place the term after they are 2 (term after they are 3 for 30 hours) or the term after the eligible from date (the date they applied) whichever is latest. ?We are trying to capture any incorrect information and manually change the date where we have been notified from settings/schools. If you have any queries please contact [email protected]

*Information regarding Easter Holiday Vouchers for Nottingham Early Years Providers*

Nottingham City Council is pleased to confirm that eligible children attending early years provision will again be offered support through supermarket vouchers for the Easter Holiday through the Household Support Fund.

Supermarket vouchers will be distributed in the normal way in advance of the Easter Holiday to the value of ?30.00.

The council is awaiting confirmation and full details of the HSF5 scheme from April until September 2024 from the Government. When this is received the council will again be in a position to provide support to vulnerable residents in Nottingham as well as future food voucher support for the May and Summer holiday periods.

*Early Years Entitlements and Wraparound Expansion Survey*

As per the correspondence sent today, our survey around the early years entitlements and wraparound expansion is now live!? This survey is a refresh and expansion of the data collected as part of the Full Childcare Sufficiency Assessment 2023 and your contribution will ensure our data is current and accurate in order to inform place expansion and ensure the City maintains a sufficient, sustainable and accessible childcare market.? The LA allocated capital funding will be linked to place expansion identified through this sufficiency work.?

This 2-part survey, comprising of an online survey and a place and vacancy spreadsheet, must be *completed by Thursday 28th March 2024* and all the links and further information can be found at [link removed] [ [link removed] ]
