The school will also receive revenue funding from the County Council based on the number of children in the setting and hours that they attend, through the Early Years Funding Formula which includes Free for 2 funding for eligible children.

    Legal implications: There are no specific legal implications for KCC. The change relates to children who are under the statutory school age.
