The portal for submitting your Summer 2024 funding claim is now open. Although you may have previously added children on the Microsoft form for code validation, you are required to add them again on the Synergy portal. Any codes received must be validated, and the children must be added to the portal again.
Please use the following link to access the portal: Sign In - Synergy (servelec-synergy.com). Kindly proceed with submitting your claim before the deadline of Friday 24 May 2024.
Additionally, we urge all providers who have not yet signed the Provider Agreement to do so at your earliest convenience. Please return the signed agreement to [email protected]. Failure to complete this step will result in delays in processing your funding claims.
