Admissions & Early Years Charges
Heads of nurseries within the Drumchapel area along with representatives from GCC HQ, Social Work and the Health Visiting team form an Admission Panel which meets a minimum of 3 times a year to allocate nursery places.
Nursery places are allocated in line with Glasgow City Council’s Admissions and Banding policy. An information leaflet on this together with details of childcare charges is displayed in reception area and a copy can be provided on request. Alternatively visit Glasgow City Council website for further information https://www.glasgow.gov.uk
What help is available in meeting the costs of my child’s nursery fees?
A range of supports are in place to help parents in meeting the cost of childcare. These include universal credits (dependent on your income), and a new HMRC Tax Free Childcare Scheme – where the government will pay £2 for every £8 you pay for childcare, up to a maximum of £2,000 annually. For more information on help with paying for childcare, please look online on the Glasgow Family Information Service – www.gfis.org.uk – or call us on 0141 287 7350.
