30 hrs free childcare - Will I qualify just working term time only (15 hours a week)?

Options
Hi All,
My other half is considering a job that is 15 hours a week but term time only.  We are concerned that it might affect applying for the 30 hours free child care, it is only just above minimum wage.  Does anyone have any idea how it might affect it? 
Thanks

    You both need to be earning at least 16 hours at NMW for the next 3 months to qualify.
    This equates to £1813.76 over the next 3 months.
