  1. I will certainly be writing to mine - it will provide a wonderful opportunity for me to express my complete outrage I took the decision, with support from parents, to keep my setting closed - great decision as it turns out, as LA will only fund those children actually present, I think I would have had no more than three each morning - that level of funding would hardly cover my rent However my initial decision was based on safety concerns - I simply will not/cannot put the children, their families and the groups adults at increased risk of infection - the infection rate in my area is terrifying
  2. Same - but I'm willing to give it a try
  3. Yep - that's what I thought too - good old Judith though for asking the question
  4. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-55567154
  5. Go Brighton! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-55567154
  6. That is so wrong That money does not BELONG to the LAs anyway - they are just provided with it to pass onto settings
  7. Jeez you couldn't make it up could you
  8. Exactly - I don't have anyone relying on me to open so that they can work I just think that we have royally shafted (again) I firmly believe that we should be closed, or only places for key worker or vulnerable children
  9. You can say that again!
  10. Have spoken to them today I don't think any firm decision yet - I'm not open anyway so I certainly don't expect funding, I wanted to know what to do as I should be completing my headcount in a couple of weeks - I won't be able to do that, I have already had a payment in advance, do they want that back now, can I submit my headcount after half-term if I am open then - sorry I'm not asking you (!) that's what I was asking them..... Having been in touch with parents I now know that I probably would have been to 3 or 4 children.....
  11. So pleased for you
  12. Definitely a boohoo
  13. Check out new thread 'Lockdown funding 2021' - sorry not sure how to link to it
  14. Thank you nomski That is quite dreadful news, indefensible.....
  15. When do you have to submit your headcount and how do you complete yours - a question on ours would be 'is the child in attendance'
  16. So are you open for just Key Worker and Vulnerable?
  17. Oi - you two I haven't touched a drop tonight
  18. More so I reckon
  19. Thinking about this again, possibly not if it is our choice to close, but I think you might be able to if you have reduced numbers of children in attendance
  20. Honestly couldn't one of those journalists asked about nurseries at the briefing
  21. I have said that I will open whenever the primary school is allowed to
  22. 🤣 agreed I'm not staying open - I have to make sensible decisions even if our Government can't - I have notified parents and so far, so good, haven't heard from all of them yet, but those who have replied have been completely supportive
  23. My feelings exactly fm We should not be in this position at all - sick to death of being so undervalued
  24. So sorry to read this - sending every good wish to you and your husband
