Before and After School Care provides activities for children Reception to Year 6, in a safe, happy environment, supervised by caring and experienced staff.
The Before School Care is open from 7:30am to 8:30am, and breakfast is provided. There is a choice of breakfast which includes cereals, toast, yoghurt, and fruit.
Please ensure your child is dropped off by 7.45am if you would like them to have breakfast.
The children will activities and play before starting school at 8.40 am.
After-school care is open from 3:30 p.m. to 5.00 p.m. Each afternoon there is a planned play session led by one of our staff, and there are also plenty of games and themed activities to choose from. A quiet area is set aside where children can read, rest or do homework.
A light snack is provided on arrival. The menu includes a selection of freshly made sandwiches, cheese, crackers, and fruit. The choice of snack changes regularly.
You can collect your child when it is convenient for you. However, if you have booked a full session and arrived early to pick up your child/ren, we cannot offer you a refund. The authorised adult must sign the attendee out from the club. After 5:00 p.m. = £15 late fee for each quarter-hour. If you have booked a place in advance and wish to cancel it, please give 24-hour notice, or you will be charged. Please contact via email to reception@northlondongrammar.com
Staff supervise children attending After School Care during club hours until they are collected by their parent/guardian (or an authorised adult). Children in Year 5 and under will not be permitted to go home unaccompanied, and children in Year 6 may do so only with the parent/guardian’s written permission. This written permission needs to clearly state the time the child may leave (and on which dates) parents/guardians are reminded that they have full responsibility for their child/ren from the time they are signed out of the club by a staff member.
Before your child can start, you will need to fill out a Registration Form, and there is a one-off registration charge of £5. Please book and pay for your sessions in advance. You can pay monthly or weekly to suit your needs. We accept internet payments made through the school payment system.
Once your family is registered with before / after school care, you can book emergency places at any time. These should be paid for on the day. Ask the school office to contact us. Alternatively, call 0208 205 0052 and speak to us during opening hours.
The range of activities that the children can do at the club varies over the weeks. Here are just a few examples:
There is a planned activity led by one of our playworkers each day that the children can choose to participate in.
A discount of 10% will be given on the above fees for bookings for second and subsequent children in the same family.
There will be a discount for people attending both Before School Care and After School Care.
Payment must be made in advance or on the day. Booking Forms are available from the Main Office and at the clubs.
Online: payments can be made via the school website.
Cheque: Payable to ‘North London Grammar School’. Please write your child’s name, class and which club the payment is for on the back of your cheque to ensure the correct allocation of monies.
Cash: Main Office. Money should be in a sealed envelope and clearly state your child’s name, class and which club the payment is for.
Please note: Should you require a change from your payment, please state this on the envelope.
If a child becomes ill during a session, every attempt will be made to contact one of the people listed on the Registration Form to arrange the sick child’s collection. We will take care of the child until collection. In the case of a minor accident, basic First Aid will be administered. Medication can only be administered with specific written instructions from a parent/guardian.
In the case of an accident requiring more than basic First Aid, every attempt will be made to contact the parent/guardian to discuss the course of action to be taken. If a child needs emergency hospital treatment, the staff will first call an ambulance and then attempt to contact the parent/guardian and continue to do so until successful. A staff member will accompany the child to the hospital and remain with them until a parent/guardian arrives.
Please note: the Registration Form contains an Authorisation giving the Care Leader permission to act “in loco parentis,” e.g. the parent/guardian cannot be contacted in time, the Care Leader will invoke that authority to take action to gain appropriate medical treatment for the child.
Before and After School care cannot accept any child to attend a session unless the parents complete and sign the Registration Form and submit it to the office.
Parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring that they always update the school with all contact details.
The safety and security of children attending our club are essential, and everyone concerned has a part to play. This policy has four features setting out everyone’s responsibilities involved with the club; parents, guardians, children, and staff.
