The University enables the exchange of a proportion of your salary for childcare vouchers. Childcare vouchers allow you to exchange a proportion of your salary for vouchers before tax and NI contributions are taken. This means you could save over £900 each year on childcare costs until your child is 15. The University currently offers Childcare Vouchers through an external provider Sodexo. However, Edenred will replace Sodexo as the University’s childcare voucher provider with effect from July 2015. For more information on the university childcare voucher scheme, e.g. eligibility or how to join, see the University of Edinburgh Childcare pages. These include details on Childcare Vouchers and Tax-Free Childcare.
