Review & Confirm:

Under the Core Funding Programme, service providers are required to Review and Confirm their Core Funding Application information throughout the programme year.The first Review and Confirm window will open on Thursday 12th January until Wednesday 18th January inclusive.

If your application is at “Referred back”, you must address the reason for refer back and then complete the review and confirm process.To support services in completing a Review & Confirm form, a detailed guidance document and tailored training videos are available in the Resources section of the Early Years Hive.
