A government-funded scheme that covers part of the cost of early childhood education.

All 3- and 4-year-olds in New Zealand are entitled to up to 20 hours a week of funded ECE.
Not every service participates — some may still charge fees on top even where it applies.

This is a different scale to the schools Equity Index — see the full explanation.

A lower number (1–4) means more funding eligibility — the opposite direction to schools.
