General 178: Action required – Unallocated Income from childcare voucher schemes: EdenRed, Sodexo , Comp Vouchers, Care4, Kiddi Vouchers, etc
Are you expecting income from Childcare Voucher Schemes: EdenRed, Sodexo, Comp Vouchers, Care4, Kiddi Vouchers, etc ?
Please check your budgets as the is an increasing number of payments received that cannot be identified – as the majority of payments only quote either a child name as the reference or a voucher number.
We have an array of descriptions coming in with the payments quoting , just Christian names , such as “ Olivia After School club” “ Thea Breakfast “ or SPRINGFIRSTHALF “ this is just a few from the huge range of unidentified payments we are dealing with.
Action Required (Maintained Schools) – If you are missing any expected income, please email dccremit@devon.gov.uk with your full budget code, the amount you’re expecting, and from which Voucher Scheme Provider you’re expecting the income from.
Be Aware – Without the Revenue Team receiving prior notification of any impending receipts, your income could inadvertently be refunded back to the voucher company.
Best Practice – If your school is using a school voucher scheme please ask the parents not to quote the child’s name but your full budget code such as G120,GXXXX,9331,9220, etc, as this will allow our receipting system to auto-allocate your income
