Anyone know how to access additional funding for Dc's on Early Years Action Plus? [work related]

[Ineedalife]

Hi all, I read something on here the other day about someone's Dc getting additional funding when they were on Action plus but dont know if it just applies to schools.

I am SENCO in a committee based Preschool, as of yesterday we have 2 Dc's on EYA+ and both require one to one at some points during the session.

Hope someone can help

There should be info on your council website or your Area SENCO should be able to tell you - may have to google name of the council and P&V settings, should be a written policy

My LA scheme was 1:1 for 50 or 75% of the free hours, plus a top up for working parents to 50/75% of 30 hours. The % depended on how delayed a child was in each EYFS area and how many areas. For 100% you had to apply for a statement

Usually you can only apply twice a year or something stupid like that and it goes to a Panel. Area Senco should come in and go through it with you

Thankyou Agnes. both the children will be funded after christmas and I guess it will take a while to find out how it works in my area.

I will email my EYSEN advisor now.
