How the calculation works

When parents use the workplace nursery benefit, their employer saves approximately 15% of the salary sacrifice amount in National Insurance. We pass 58% of that saving directly to you as investment for improvements.

As more families join

Your investment grows with each new family. Many nurseries fund significant equipment purchases, outdoor improvements, or staff training programmes within their first year.

Our OFSTED analysis tools help you prioritise spending on improvements that will have the greatest impact on children's outcomes and your inspection rating.
