Some nurseries have been inundated with requests about free childcare hours, with parents unaware that the Government’s new policy will not be fully rolled out until 2025 🔴 elle_odwyer reports
Earlier this week, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced a £4.1 bn expansion in free childcare hours for children aged between nine months and two years to be rolled out in stages over the next two years. This extends the current system of 30 hours of free childcare for three- and four-year-olds.
By early Thursday morning, the three centres had taken multiple phone calls and emails from parents – and these had only increased by the afternoon, Mr Howarth said. Parents were “disappointed” when they found out the new policy would not begin to take effect for another year and not fully for another two years, he said.
