Extended Schools

Quality childcare onsite or through local providers

High quality wraparound childcare will be provided on the school site or through other local providers, with supervised transfer arrangements where appropriate. The children will have the opportunity to take part in activities such as arts and sports which will help raise educational achievement and wellbeing.

In primary schools this means having access to a varied menu of study support and play activities, combined with childcare, five days a week, 48 weeks a year.

In secondary schools this means access to a varied menu of study support activities, which also offer young people a safe place to be during term time, and more flexibly in the holidays, (secondary schools do not need to provide access to formal childcare).
