I really am not sure how it all works so I don’t know if this is fair or not.
I’ve been with current CM for about 8 months. DD has received 15 hours funding since September.
In April she will be starting a mix of preschool and CM. I have said to CM I will be moving the 15 hours funding to preschool from April as it works out more cost effective, a bigger saving.
She has said by us doing this, she will lose out on a fair whack of money and will need to raise her hourly rate to make up for it. Which makes it a bit pointless moving the funding over in the first place.
Is this fair? I honestly have no idea what to do to make the most financial sense. She will get 30 hours in Sept if that makes a difference.
