Invoices & payments
Fees are payable monthly in advance. Invoices are issued on the 1st and payment is due by the 10th. We accept BACS, cash, cheque and Tax-Free Childcare payments.
The published late-payment terms state that £10 is charged when payment is more than 24 hours overdue, followed by £10 per day until payment is received in full. A child’s place may be put on hold until payment clears. Please speak to the office promptly if there is a problem with a payment.
