Nursery fees

    Although it seems disproportionate to your current monthly fees, it will not be disproportionate to the amount paid by others. £56 a month isn't a vast amount to pay for a nursery for a month, so it sounds as though you have some hours funded (is your child over 3 years old?)

    Assuming that I am correct in my above observation, imagine if someone who pays a higher amount does not pay on time. This could potentially cause problems with cash flow for the nursery.

    I agree with this. In our case, a £50 would be a surcharge of 10% on our monthly payment which doesn't seem too unreasonable as a penalty. Our city has just been in the news for the most costly childcare in Europe though!
