How do I use Ccgpay?
Go to www.ccgpay.co.uk/childcare-provider/login to register with the CCGPS. You'll need to provide your Ofsted registration certificate and bank details. Once you've registered, an online account will be created which you can use to request and receive childcare payments.
What is the childcare grant payment service?
The Childcare Grant Payment Service (CCGPS) is a recognised government partner. You'll get an email each time your childcare provider sends Student Finance England a request for payment. You just need to sign in, check the amounts are correct, and approve it.
Does childcare grant affect universal credit?
Childcare support is paid in arrears. This means that you will usually pay the costs yourself, and Universal Credit will then pay you some of that money back.
Does childcare grant cover holidays?
Their household income is the income of their husband, wife, civil partner or partner (if they have one) and any dependants. Students can apply for up to 85% of their actual childcare costs during term times and holidays.
