financial provision for children

A parent with care of a child or children may need to apply to the Court for additional financial provision for a child to include payment of school fees, payment for school trips or nursery fees and even for housing provision. 

Such applications are made under Schedule 1 (and Section 15) of the Children Act 1989. 

The Court has power to order the non-resident parent to provide a lump sum payment to the parent with care or to provide a fund of capital for housing provision with such fund being held on trust for the paying party and therefore recoverable at some future date.
