Welcome to Guiseley Primary School Nursery
Nursery Funding
3 and 4 year old children
Following their 3rd birthday, all children become eligible for 15 hours Free Early Education Entitlement (FEEE) which you do not need to apply or claim for. Your child may be eligible for up to 30 hours free childcare depending on family circumstances. Your 30 hour code can be used for nursery sessions or upto 15 hours in the Sunrise and Sunset before and after school club. To check your eligibility and to claim your 30 hour code please use the government website:

To check if you are eligible for the working parent entitlement, please use the government website
If you meet the criteria, you can apply for an 11 digit eligibility code through the same childcare account already used for Tax Free Childcare or for Extended Entitlement (30 hours) for a different 3 or 4 year old child.
The free 15 hours can only be used in Nursery and cannot be used for Sunrise and Sunset sessions. If you require more than 15 hours per week, additional sessions can be paid for at a cost of £16.50 per 3 hour session. Additional sessions are booked and payable for the full half term.
For any issues, questions or queries regarding a 30 hour code, 2 year old Working Parent Entitlement or a taxfree childcare account, please contact HMRC Childcare team on 03001 234097.
