School aged childcare provider network meetings (HAF, Wraparound and free breakfast clubs)

HAF, Wraparound, and Free Breakfast Club provision have now been brought together under the title School Aged Childcare.

To support this transition, we will be holding combined provider network meetings each term and future emails will also be combined. These Provider meetings will offer a valuable opportunity to receive updates, access training, share key information, and network with other providers.

Each session will be split into two parts:

• The first half will cover updates, key dates, and data sharing
• The second half will focus on training and relevant topics, based on your feedback

Please note that the second half will be the same at both the lunchtime and evening sessions, allowing you to attend at a time that suits you.

Who can attend?

These sessions are important for HAF, Wraparound or Free Breakfast Club staff and organisations primarily but also relevant to anyone working with children and young people of school age outside of school hours and during the holidays.

Summer term dates:

The sessions will be delivered remotely by Microsoft Teams and from the Autumn term you can book these through the Devon Education Services Shop. We strongly encourage you to attend at least one session, or both if you are able, and hope you will find these helpful and informative.
