Pre-school credit applications invited

Tue, 09 Jun 2020


Parents and guardians of children who turn four in the next school year can apply for the Manx Government's pre-school credit scheme. 

The scheme offers parents £3,420 to help pay for pre-school costs and can be used with registered providers of child day-care, including childminders. Parents of children who reach their fourth birthday between 1 September 2020 and 31 August 2021 can apply online to receive three equal payments of £1,140 in September, January and April.

Paper copies of the application form can be collected from the Welcome Centre or Hamilton House, where completed forms can also be delivered.

Last week, the Chief Minister announced that nurseries, playgroups and childminders can increase the number of children in their care, with children of parents working in the retail sector accepted back from today (8 June) and any other eligible children from 15 June.
