• From April 2024, two-year-old children of eligible working parents can get funded entitlement hours the term after they turn two (FEEE2W). This is for 15 hours per week for 38 weeks if the parents meet the eligibility criteria.  

• Some two-year-olds can get funded hours if their parents are on certain benefits, meet economic criteria or the child meets certain non-economic criteria (FEEE2). This is for 15 hours per week for 38 weeks if the parents meet the eligibility criteria.  

• All three- and four-year-olds can get funded entitlement hours from the term after they turn three up until they go to school; this is called the universal funded entitlement (FEEE3&4). This is for 15 hours per week for 38 weeks.  

• Three- and four-year-olds of eligible working parents can get the extended funded entitlement (EFE), which is another 15 hours in addition to the universal 15 funded hours; this is often called the “30-hour offer”. This means children can have up to 30 hours a week for 38 weeks.
