Margaret McMillan Nursery School offers funded early education places in line with current government and Islington Local Authority guidance.

All 3 and 4 year olds are entitled to 15 hours of free early education from the term after their third birthday. This can be increased to 30 hours for eligible working families using a valid Working Entitlement Code, or by accessing additional paid hours where available.

Eligible 2 year olds can access 15 hours of funded provision by applying for a government support code via the Citizens Portal.

Some eligible 2 year olds may also access up to 30 hours through the Working Entitlement scheme.

Funded hours can be used within our core term-time provision or as part of our all year round places, depending on family needs and availability.
