Let the parent decide her future as long as you are happy that you have not entered into any 'retainer' deal which is not good for you

As from Sept 2014 the funding criteria changes as it will be paid to LAs 'by result'...in addition many schools will be opening their doors to 2 year olds....so worth watching how things develop!
