Getting paid as a childcare provider
Student Finance England (SFE) have made it easier for childcare providers to get Childcare Grant payments.
How we바카라 사이트檒l pay the Childcare Grant
Student Finance England (SFE) will pay the Childcare Grant directly to you, the childcare provider, through the Childcare Grant Payment Service (CCGPS).
What is the CCGPS?
The CCGPS is an online platform enabling students to manage their Childcare Grant by authorising and sending payments to childcare providers electronically. CCGPS is administered by , a recognised government partner.
Register to get paid
Go to to register with the CCGPS. You바카라 사이트檒l need to provide your Ofsted registration certificate and bank details.
Once you바카라 사이트檝e registered, an online account will be created which you can use to request and receive childcare payments.
We can only start making payments to you once you바카라 사이트檝e registered with the CCGPS. If you don바카라 사이트檛 register then we can바카라 사이트檛 make any Childcare Grant payments.
How and when you바카라 사이트檒l be paid
There are a few simple steps that need to be taken before we can pay you:
-
The student needs to register with the CCGPS and link your details.
-
You바카라 사이트檒l need to be registered with the CCGPS before we can pay you. If you haven바카라 사이트檛 already registered when the student links your details, we바카라 사이트檒l send you an email inviting you to do so.
-
Use your online account to invoice childcare costs throughout the academic year. SFE pay up to 85% of the student바카라 사이트檚 childcare costs. You should enter your full invoice amount(s) for the previous weeks/months childcare costs and the CCGPS will calculate how much Childcare Grant should be paid.
-
The student needs to sign in to their online account to confirm that the invoice(s) are correct. The CCGPS will tell the student how much they need to pay you directly.
You바카라 사이트檒l be paid directly through the CCGPS. We바카라 사이트檒l pay you anytime the student accepts your invoice, as long as they haven바카라 사이트檛 used all of their Childcare Grant.
Students won바카라 사이트檛 be able to use their Childcare Grant to pay for advance payments such as deposit payments. This is because the Childcare Grant isn바카라 사이트檛 paid until after they바카라 사이트檝e started their course and we바카라 사이트檝e got confirmation of registration from their university or college.
If you바카라 사이트檝e been paid through the Childcare Grant process previously
You still need to register with the CCGPS.
To make it easier than before, we바카라 사이트檒l pay the grant directly to you, the childcare provider, rather than the student. You no longer need to complete any forms.
