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.

Strategic spending guidance

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

OFSTED Analysis Tools

Turn your inspection report into a plan

Kinsail’s custom-built OFSTED Analysis Tools read your latest inspection report and turn it into clear, evidence-based investment priorities. Contributions go where an independent inspector found the greatest opportunity to improve children’s outcomes.

1
Reads your inspection report
We start from your published OFSTED report, so every recommendation is grounded in what an independent inspector found.
2
Sets clear investment priorities
Findings become a short, costed list of improvements, ranked by the difference they make to children’s outcomes.
3
Gives parents informed questions
Families get specific points to raise at their nursery meeting, so contributions go where they matter most.
