Wraparound Care

What is wraparound childcare?

Wraparound childcare is before and after school childcare. Also know as breakfast clubs and after school clubs. These are for primary school aged children in England.

They usually run from 8am until 6pm, during term time. They run on either on a school site or another local setting such as a community centre, a nursery, or a childminder.

These are different from out-of-school activities, or school clubs. These can run less often and can be a one-off activity.
