Helen Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Reading the article in April's Nursery World from Claire Coutinho MP, she states that from this September, the average hourly rate for 2 year olds will rise to £8. and to £5.50 for 3 and 4 year olds. How will this affect you? Will it be sufficient to keep vulnerable settings open and even, perhaps to raise the hourly rate for your staff?

louby loo Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 But when would this be from? We already have our rates from April 23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted May 22, 2023 Author Share Posted May 22, 2023 The article states it'll be from September. I'm sure everyone will be watching closely 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finleysmaid Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 the issue still exists that even with a 1-5 ratio for the two year olds 8x3 year olds bring in more income....why would you take the 2 year olds who require more help and support (as a generalisation!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
