30 Hour Funding
At Overchurch Infant School we offer a number of places for eligible parents to receive 30 hour funded education and care. The 30 hours are offered during the 38 term time weeks.
The eligibility rules for 30 hours funded childcare are as follows:
- Both parents must be working – or the sole parent is working in a lone parent family.
- Each parent earns, on average, a weekly minimum equivalent to 16 hours at National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage.
- Each parent must have an annual income of less than £100,000.
- You live in England.
You’re not eligible if:
- Your child does not usually live with you.
- The child is your foster child.
- Either you or your partner has a taxable income over £100,000.
- You’re from outside the EEA and your UK residence card says you cannot access public funds.
30 Hour Lunchtime provision
Children who will access a 30 hour funded place can opt to have a hot dinner provided by the school at the cost of £12.50 per week or parents can provide a healthy packed lunch from home. Our lunchtime menu is on a three-week rotation and includes many delicious choices such as fish and chips, roast dinner and Overchurch Fried Chicken!
