Schools and nurseries are charging parents to watch their children perform at Christmas productions.
Nursery World has learnt that it is now commonplace for schools to charge parents to watch their child in their Christmas or Nativity play, and some nurseries are starting to follow suit.
While most schools charge just £1 or £2 for a ticket, Nursery Worldhas found that some schools are asking parents to pay up to £5 each. A number of early years settings are also charging parents for tickets to their Christmas performances.
In some instances, schools and nurseries ask for voluntary contributions or only charge parents for refreshments.
