New guide aims to clarify funding changes

Funding
A new guide outlining changes to early years funding and delivery has been published by the Pre-School Learning Alliance.

It is designed to provide clarity to providers as the Alliance says there is a lot of misinformation and confusion among the sector about what is changing and when.

Free to download, 'A Guide to Early Years Funding and Delivery Changes’ provides an update to the Alliance’s previous publication on early years funding, which came out ahead of the Government’s consultation response.

This new guide includes how local authority funding rates have been calculated, how local funding formulas will work, and changes to SEND support. It also features an overview of the general principles around the delivery of the free entitlement offer, the rules around eligibility for the 30-hour offer and a timeline of when key changes are due to be implemented.
