Tax-Free Childcare

Tax-Free Childcare Support for Families in Shipley & Bradford

Qalm Academy proudly accepts Tax-Free Childcare, helping working parents reduce the cost of their child’s education while maintaining access to high-quality academic and faith-based learning.

Through the Government’s Tax-Free Childcare scheme, for every £8 you pay into your childcare account, the Government adds £2, giving you up to £2,000 per child per year towards eligible childcare costs.

  • ✅ Neither parent earns over the yearly earnings limit set by the Government
  • ✅ Your child is 11 years old or under (or up to 16 for children with special educational needs)
