The government only entitles parents/legal guardians who meet the eligibility requirements (e.g. income requirements) to the Extended 30 Hours Free Entitlement. If you are eligible, you will need to apply for and obtain a 30 hours code via your Childcare Service Account. Regulation requires us to validate your 30 hours code with the local authority using your child’s date of birth, 30 hours code and National Insurance Number. We will ask for your 30 hours validation code and national insurance number when you register. By providing this information, you are giving us consent to validate your 30 hours code.
