Our nursery has recently been taken over (well actually shut down and a new nursery opened in the same building, but with a new ofsted registration, new manager etc). We were told we could continue with our existing arrangements, as it was previously a term-time only pre-school type of nursery, whereas now it is 8am-6pm all year round. We used to pay termly but will now be paying monthly, the same each month apparently, rather than a bill for the actual hours attended each month.
Anyway, we have had our first invoice for the coming month. It gives a total cost of £59.80 for the sessions (one 3-hour session per week). Apparently this is the hourly cost of £4.60 x 3 hours x 4.3333 weeks, to allow for longer and shorter months. I totally get that this is not a massively expensive bill, but it doesn't seem right for a term time only arrangement. I have asked them, but just wondered if this is normal? As it seems to me like we will be paying for a place all year round with this calculation, not term time only.
