Thank you. They are registered for it but they use parent pay so not sure if it would work. I will ask when I go. I only remembered about it yesterday, definitely worth using it if we can x
It may be as in a school staff might have their lunch at that time and they have to pay for additional lunch staff (just as an example). No harm in asking
Yes, that’s what the charge is for. I’ll ask, just with the gov website saying can’t be used for lunches made me wonder if anyone had tried already 😊x
Hi sorry to jump on here late but I’ve just started my son in a school nursery , we use the free hours , you do you have pay for lunches or you can just do a packed lunch.
My daughter’s school doesn’t offer hot lunches for nursery, it’s packed lunch only. We have to pay to cover the wages of the lunchtime staff as that time is not covered in the funding. We can use tax free childcare to pay, it might be worth asking your school if you can too as it’s a 20% saving 😊x
Will entirely depend on the nursery policy. If it is 9-3 worth asking the question directly as they can then explain their reasoning. Although there isn't a reason why tax free can't be used... funded hours would be a different reason x
