Do after-school clubs in SG17 offer funded childcare?

Most nurseries in England offer government-funded hours: 15 hours for all 3 and 4-year-olds, and up to 30 hours for eligible working parents of children from 9 months. Ask each one which funded sessions they have space for and what extra costs apply.

How do I choose between after-school clubs in SG17?

Start with ones close to home or on your way to work, check their Ofsted grade and the ages they take, then visit two or three. Ask about staff ratios, the daily routine, settling in, meals and fees.
