Working Parent Entitlements and Think2 Confirmation Codes - what to do with them?

Question:
Working Parent Entitlements and Think2 Confirmation Codes - what to do with them?
Answer:

Apart from the universal hours for 3 and 4 year olds, parents will have to meet the eligibility criteria and apply for all other elements of funded childcare, this includes:

• Think2 – 2 year funding for low income families receiving government support.

  • Parents apply to Staffordshire County Council. Successful applications will receive a confirmation code that you must give to your childcare provider.

• Working Parent Entitlements – for children from 9-months to 4 years and includes the extra 15 hours for 3 and 4 year olds.

  • Parents must meet the criteria and apply via the government website Childcare Choices. Parents who receive a code must present this to their childcare provider so it can be validated.
  • Fosters Carers and their Social Worker must apply to Staffordshire County Council for the Working Parent Entitlement, not to Childcare Choices. Find out more.

*Childcare Choices are solely responsible for checking eligibility on application made to them for the Working Parent Entitlements.
