Wrap Around Care

Admissions:

Breakfast & After School Club are open to pupils attending Archbishop Runcie First School

Emergency contact, medical and dietary details used will be those already supplied to the school.

We will make all reasonable adjustments and consider all options available to us when considering if a child can attend our wrap around care. All children will be considered on an individual basis. The definition of what is ‘reasonable’ will be based on the following criteria: (The following criteria applies to children wanting to attend wrap around care for the first time as well as children who already attend wrap around care)

• Needs of the child (assessment by staff in school, SEND/ health documentation)
• Safeguarding – the needs of the child, the other children attending wrap around care, and the staff
• Experience and training of the staff (If an additional member of staff needs to be employed to support a child on a 1:1 or 1:2 basis, parents/carers will be asked for a monetary contribution towards this.
• Limitations of the facility – number of attendees and staff and the suitable spaces available
• Ratio of staff to children

Decisions will be made by the Headteacher in consultation with the Deputy Head, Wrap Around Leader, SENCO and School Business Manager. If any parent/carer challenges the decision of the Headteacher this will be reviewed by an independent committee of governors. Decisions made by the Headteacher and/or governors will be reviewed at least termly.
