Out of school childcare

In Lincolnshire, we have launched our grant funding programme.This allows us to work with schools to develop breakfast and after school provision for primary aged school children.  

The funding will be granted to schools and childcare providers that meet the government requirements. This funding will create new before and after school childcare or expand the number of places or opening times offered.

Schools and childcare providers must be Ofsted registered to receive funding. 

The wraparound funding can support:

• staffing costs
• running costs
• purchasing of resources and equipment
• advertising costs (including banners, posters, and other materials) to increase occupancy levels
• staff training costs

For more detailed information please see the following document: Wrapround childcare: guidance for schools and trusts in England
