Breakfast club

To support the parents of our children, we run a breakfast club each morning from 7.30am. Children are given a nutritious breakfast and have access to activities which are organised for them by our extended services team, and which include puzzles, drawing, board games and iPads. Some children use the time for daily reading or homework.

After-school club

We also offer an after-school club five days a week from the end of the school day until 6pm. Children have access to a range of pre-planned and timetabled activities such as baking, painting and model making; activities are changed every term to ensure variety and allow children to try new experiences. All children get an afternoon snack.

Breakfast and after school club are open to all children from reception to year 6 attending the academy.

Charges

Breakfast club – £4.50 per session

After school club – £8 per session

Booking and payment

To book your child(ren) a place in breakfast and/or after school club, a registration form must be completed. The registration form is available via Weduc the week before half-term holiday to register your child for sessions for the following term. Due to staffing levels places are allocated on a first come, first served basis. It is a requirement that places are paid for one month in advance via your child’s ParentPay account. We will always endeavour to accommodate all bookings but due to statutory staffing levels this may not be possible.

Charges will be invoiced in advance on a monthly basis. Payment is to be made in full by the first day of the month prior to the month they are billed for via your child’s ParentPay account (for example, the invoice for October sessions will be issued in early September and due for payment before 30 September).

Failure to pay in full by the due date may mean that your child cannot attend the sessions. Refunds will not be made for any missed booked sessions. Any unexpected or additional sessions that arise during the month must be paid for at the time of booking.

Free school meals

Children in receipt of Free School Meals are entitled to a free place at Breakfast Club.

Children will be cared for by the Extended Services Team.  Extended Services is provided by the academy and although the children are not in school, we still follow the same behaviour policy. Their place may be at risk if their behaviour puts other children at risk of harm. Bullying will not be tolerated. A variety of age-appropriate activities will be available for the children to take part in. We also include quieter options to give the children the opportunity to relax with friends. Older children are also encouraged to complete their homework. A healthy breakfast will be served in the morning sessions before 8:15am. A healthy finger food tea will be served after school. We do not recommend that this replaces an evening meal

Cancellation Policy

Once you have booked a place you are obliged to pay, even if your child(ren) does not attend for any reason, including illness. If your circumstances change mid-term, we require a minimum of one months’ notice in writing to the office that the place is no longer required. Any payment made for a place before notice is given will not be refunded and further payment will be required to complete your commitment to the end of the notice period.

 Late Collection

Collection after 6:00pm will result in a late collection payment of £20 per child being charged to cover staff and site staff costs.

Notice of any increase in charges:

We will give one month’s notice, in writing to parents, of any changes in charges.
