Helpful answers
Nursery questions in Kidderminster
Which postcodes cover nurseries in Kidderminster?
Kidderminster mainly uses DY10 and DY11, covering the town centre and residential areas across the north, east, south and west of the town.
How much funded childcare can Kidderminster families receive?
All 3 and 4 year olds can receive 15 funded hours a week. Eligible working families with children aged 9 months to 4 years old can receive up to 30 funded hours a week for 38 weeks of the year.
Can I use funded hours at more than one childcare setting?
Yes. Funded hours can be divided between eligible settings, such as combining a day nursery, school nursery or childminder, provided the total remains within your child's entitlement.
Does attending a school nursery guarantee a Reception place?
No. A nursery place at a Kidderminster school does not guarantee or give automatic priority for Reception. Parents still need to make a separate school application.
What happens to funded hours if my child is ill or away?
Funded hours normally continue to hold your child's place during illness, holidays or other absences. Hours missed because your child was absent cannot usually be saved and used later.
Can a Kidderminster nursery charge a registration fee for a funded place?
If your child uses funded hours only, Worcestershire states that a registration fee cannot be charged. A refundable deposit may be requested when reserving a place in advance, but it must be returned by the end of the first funded term.
Can funded nursery hours include lunchtime?
Yes, where the setting offers this arrangement. The funded hours can include a lunch period, although the meal itself may cost extra or parents may be able to provide a packed lunch.
What if I want to change nursery after the term has started?
Worcestershire allocates funded hours on a term basis. Giving notice to the existing setting by the end of the third week of term normally allows the funding to transfer to another eligible provider.
What additional support is available for a child with SEND?
Worcestershire uses an Early Years Inclusion Supplement to help settings meet additional costs when supporting children with SEND. From April 2026, updated funding levels are linked to the child's level of need through the county's graduated response.
