Eligibility Checker
You will need a valid email address in order to use this eligibility checker. If you do not have an email address, you can ring our Family Information Service (FIS) on 0300 123 6712.

To get started 

• Click on the 'Create Account' link above. 
• Fill in some basic information about yourself including your email address.
• We will then send you a confirmation email with a link to login to your account.
• You must login to your account to complete the application.
• Once your account has been created you can log in at any time to view your details or to submit new applications for 2 year old funded places.

What next?

Once you have completed your application you will receive an email telling you to go to the Summary page of your account where you can view the result. We will also send you a letter within the next 10 days to confirm the result. If you are eligible the letter will contain a 'golden ticket' and voucher code which your childcare provider will need to see before they can offer you a funded place for your child.

The personal details that you provide will only be used for the purposes of providing you with information about your eligibility to claim a 2 year old funded place and to check your eligibility for the Early Years Pupil Premium.
