Helpful answers

Nursery questions in Stratford-upon-Avon

What postcode covers nurseries in Stratford-upon-Avon?

CV37 is the main postcode district for Stratford-upon-Avon. The wider town council area also reaches towards neighbouring postcode districts, so checking the full setting address is useful when comparing childcare.

Are Shottery and Tiddington included when looking for childcare in Stratford-upon-Avon?

Yes. Shottery and Tiddington are established parts of the wider Stratford-upon-Avon community, alongside areas such as Bishopton, Bridgetown and Clopton.

How many funded childcare hours can families receive?

All 3 and 4 year olds can receive 15 funded hours a week, usually over 38 weeks. Eligible working families can receive up to 30 funded hours a week from the term after their child turns 9 months old until school age.

Can I spread funded hours across more of the year?

Yes, if your childcare provider offers this option. Instead of taking the entitlement only over 38 weeks, families can use fewer funded hours each week across a longer period of the year.

Does being eligible for 30 hours guarantee a full day nursery place?

No. Funding eligibility does not guarantee a particular nursery, weekday or session pattern. If you need full days, fixed working days or a baby place, it is worth checking availability before the entitlement begins.

What extra nursery costs should I check before accepting a place?

Ask how the provider charges for meals, snacks, nappies, sun cream, trips, specialist activities and additional private hours. Warwickshire requires these charges to be transparent and separate from the funded childcare hours themselves.

Could my child’s nursery receive extra funding to support their learning?

Yes. Eligible children using funded childcare may attract Early Years Pupil Premium, which is paid directly to the provider and can be used to improve learning and development support.

What support is available if my child has SEND?

Warwickshire early years settings must make arrangements for children with additional needs, usually coordinated by a SENCO or another designated member of staff. The county’s specialist preschool service can also support settings, while eligible children receiving Disability Living Allowance can attract £975 a year in Disability Access Fund for their provider during 2026 to 2027.
