So I found out from my daughters new school that they have deceived to start her on the 24th September they are staging induction in 3 stages to make it easier for the children to settle in.
Here are my issues with this:
- I lose my childcare funding on the 31st August.
- My husband and I both have to work ful time. Just to pay the bills prior to the childcare funding we were paying out twice our rent just to put her into nursery.
- Schools go back the first week of September so we have planned and budgeted for this prior to recieving our letter from the school.
- So the children born at the beginning of the school year have 3 more weeks to settle into school than my daughter and then she is only there 3 weeks prior to half term?
- Doesn’t this just unsettle the children that has supposedly settled in the first week with new children coming in ?
- Lastly we can not afford the now extra nursery fees as we have just moved so have a higher rent and cannot take time off Due to having to take time off earlier in the year and have already booked time off for half terms and Christmas etc
Where do we stand what do we do ???
