4 week run on childcare

In the past when my childcare reduced which i get from tax credits i carried on getting the larger amount for 4 more weeks .My childcare will stop at the end of august so i will have to inform tax credit that i will no longer be claiming for childcare but will i still get 4 more weeks childcare even though i wont actually be paying childcare ?

    When my childcare stopped due to maternity leave, I still got the 4 week run on. Quite useful in the month before xmas. I've had my renewal done and they've not asked for anything back.
