I’m currently in a dispute with little man’s nursery/pre-school about fees. I think I’m being overcharged and their explanation isn’t helping to clarify the situation. I’ll persevere with them but just want to see if someone on here can tell me where I’m going wrong.
Son attends pre-school 1 day per week (9hrs), and they are open 51 weeks of the year. For arguments sake daily cost is £50. Annual cost would be £2550.
As he is 3-4 he is eligible for 15 hours funding. We split this with another pre-school; 6 hours there, and 9 hours at this one. As I understand it, the funding only covers 38 weeks term time.
Therefore in my mind I should be paying for 13 weeks, with the rest being funded, meaning cost over the year would be £650.
Am I wrong?
Sorry this is all a bit mumsnet!
