Fees and Funding at Young Haymakers
We offer a range of session rates depending on your child’s age and funding eligibility. These are aligned with the Early Years Education Entitlement (EYEE) guidance provided by East Sussex County Council.
Funding Overview
•     Eligible 2-year-olds may receive 15 funded hours per week, for 38 weeks per year, depending on family
       circumstances.
•     All 3- and 4-year-olds are entitled to the Universal 15 funded hours per week starting the first full term after their third birthday.
•     Working families may be eligible for up to 30 funded hours per week — we offer 5 hours per day, so this would be
      25 hours per week for a full time child this requires an Early Years Funding Code from HMRC.

​

How Funding Works
•     Funded hours are deducted from the sessions your child attends.
•     Parents are responsible for any additional hours beyond the funded entitlement.
•     Funding is applied during term time only (38 weeks per year).
•     We follow the East Sussex Charging Policy, which allows settings to charge for:
•     Additional hours beyond the funded entitlement
•     Meals, snacks, and consumables
•     Enrichment activities not covered by government funding

​

Important Notes
•     Funding is not applied automatically — families must apply and provide the necessary codes and documentation.

​•     We use the EYFS framework for assessment and planning, and funding does not affect the quality or consistency of care
