Can I claim funding for a child that started after the October census day?
Unfortunately we don't have any local discretion over the pupil numbers that are used for funding. If it is a child starting in the main school rather than a nursery class we have to use the number of children on roll at October census day, so this child won't be counted in the pupil numbers used to calculate your next year's delegated budget.
If you have a 2, 3 or 4 year old nursery child start with you after headcount and they have not previously claimed a funded early years place elsewhere in North Yorkshire you can claim for the remaining weeks of the term that they attend.
Can we reclaim rental costs for ad-hoc use of additional premises?
Only schools in receipt of Exceptional Rent Funding (S251) are eligible for reimbursement.
