Every Child Matters

• Over the last school year, one in ten schools
  have begun operating as extended schools,
  providing a core offer of childcare or activities
  for children during term time.
• Government is now urging private sector providers
  to actively seek out and get involved in their
  local extended schools programme.
• Were not expecting teachers to deliver this
  service but for schools to work with providers.

Clubs4children

• in partnership with
• 4Children
• Continyou
• Childrens University
• Local Authorities
• are working towards the goal that all schools
  become extended schools by 2010.
• Today is a gift we call the present.
• Present your children with a future.

Core services

• Three of the five elements of the core
  extended services which will be made available by
  2010 are
• High quality, affordable childcare 8am-6pm
• A varied menu of activities
• Wider community access to school facilities
  Extended Schools means
• Extended hours
• Extended opportunities
• Extended access

Extended Provision

• Greenacres Primary School, one of the larger
  county schools, has recently extended their after
  school provision, which over 50 children now
  attend
• French4children has been running as an after
  school club for many years at our school, and
  this year we have extended the Clubs4children
  provision to include Drama ICT. The children
  are thoroughly enjoying all clubs, and the staff
  running them are great.
• Bob Wood is, like many Heads, looking at the
  longer term
• If Clubs4children didnt run these clubs, they
  probably wouldnt happen in school. We are now
  looking towards Extended Schools, and hopefully
  Clubs4children can be involved.

  Teacher, Greenacres Primary

An exciting agenda

• Schools are beginning to work closely with
  providers, in order to ensure that extended
  services become a reality and are the best they
  can be.
• The remodelling process takes schools through six
  stages and throughout the process schools are
  encouraged to draw on the expertise of respected
  local providers.

7
Mobilise

• Schools are encouraged to
• Carry out an audit of need-driven targets amongst
  parents and children.
• Determine demand.
• Identify existing providers with whom
• they may be able to work.

Discover

• Schools are encouraged to
• Identify opportunities for collaboration with
  other organisations
• Consider the viability of the different options
  and which option to take forward.
• Consider what to charge, and what families will
  be willing/able to pay

10
Deliver

• Once the school has decided on the provision
  required, the school and outside agencies draw up
  an action plan to deliver the service.
• Where schools collaborate with one established
  provider, there will be fewer steps for them to
  take, since the provider will already have
  policies and procedures in place, which will
  facilitate a smooth delivery.
