Exceptions to the upper age limit may be granted. For more information please contact eyqueries@dcya.gov.ie
If your service has less than eight children registered for the ECCE programme, per room, your service must complete a minimum exemption form. Once completed, send to jane@wccc.ie and we will forward to Pobal. Please note that if you do have less than eight children and have not received an exemption you will be found to be non compliant.
Please see the Minimum Exemption Checklist Guide
