Strategies for Integrating Wraparound Childcare
During the webinar, we delved into the optimal strategies for integrating wraparound childcare into school environments; sharing our insights on the latest guidance published by the Department for Education (DfE). We emphasised how different approaches would inform the financial sustainability, community engagement, and operational burden of new and expanded provisions.
Tailoring Solutions for MATs: Progress Update
Following the webinar, we are thrilled to announce that we are actively progressing conversations with numerous MATs to support their access to the National Wraparound Childcare Programme. These discussions are centred around tailoring solutions to meet the unique needs and objectives of each Trust. Our recommended next steps include assisting MATs in navigating the application process and accessing available funding through Local Authorities.
Audit Initiative: Maximising Wraparound Care for MATs
As part of this initiative, we have committed to providing several MATs with a comprehensive initial audit of their Trust’s current wraparound care offer. The audit will include an overall ‘Trust summary’, as well as a school-by-school analysis of any existing wraparound care, leading to our recommended actions for optimisation. This proactive step underscores our dedication to supporting MAT leaders with maximising their ability to make the NWCP a virtue for their Trust.
Second Webinar Alert: Join Us to Learn About The NWCP
For those who were unable to attend our first session, we are pleased to announce that we will be hosting a second webinar on Tuesday 7th May, at 10am. This webinar will provide another opportunity to learn about the NWCP and explore how MATs can engage with the scheme to benefit their budget and community.
