| How do you find out if your child is eligible for a funded place? |
|
Please click here to check your child's eligibility for a 2 year old funded place.
In Scotland, all children aged 3 or 4 years old and some 2 year olds are entitled to a part-time, funded nursery place in either a Council nursery, or in a nursery or playgroup which has a partnership contract with the Council.
It is not always possible to guarantee that this place will be in your first choice of nursery.

| How many hours are funded? |
|
Places are for up to 30 hours per week (1140 hours term time) and are across all of the nurseries in Glasgow. These hours can be offered in a wide variety of patterns to suit the needs of families.
If your child is offered a full day place, you can access a maximum of funded 10 hours per day / 30 funded hours per week term time (38 weeks) and 22.8 hours non term time (50 weeks) throughout the academic year.
