A Chara,
We would like to let you know that split place exemptions will no longer be available for the ECCE programme, from the beginning of 2026/2027 ECCE programme year.
To support the transition, those that have already been granted a split place exemption for the current 2025/26 programme year can continue to use this provision for their second year of ECCE in 2026/27, if they choose to do so.
Regards
The Early Years Team
