There are pre-schools like Head Start that are income based. You can apply for finacial aid and then it won't cost anything. It is a wonderful program and has been around for quite awhile. My oldest child went when he was 3 and he is now 25. You can call the local social services and find out where one is located in your area. They can also direct you to other schools that offer the same type of help. Good Luck !!

if the person is attending further education they may be entitled to childcare funding for the college and if they are a stay at home parent the child is entitled to a free morning or afternoon session in a nursery class attached to a school if the child is 3 and a half years old, however a nursery grant is also avalible for funding a 2 hour session a day in a private nursery school and this is also from 3 and half years old.

All children aged 3 and above are entitled to 2 and 1/2 hours a day of free nursery places paid for by the government regardless of income. I'm not sure which places accept this though so you would have to check. Your local council should beable to tell you of the places avaliable.

Depends on the age. I think you get free places for all kids from 2 1/2 now.
Benefits or no benefits, all people get the same free schooling.

There are programs - Check for a "Head Start" in your area, they provide free pre-school for low-income families, and sometimes have programs that begin for children as young as 3. If you can't find a Head Start, you might check with the local public school district, because they should have information on available programs, too.

I would advise you to speak to your health visitor in the first instance. Also speak to the 'Early years department' of your local education authority. Go on your council website to find contact details. Different LEAs do things differently but many offer a limited number of free places to those with social or medical needs.

if your talking about nursery then no all children under the age of 5yrs are entitled to a free nursery place. this is not a private nursery but a school nursery check out your local schools for places.

people on benefits are by definition receiving money for doing nothing so even if they did have to part with some money its others that have actually earnt it so it must be others that are paying,again.
