Find out about plans to ensure parents and carers of primary school aged children have access to wraparound childcare from 8am to 6pm by September 2026.
All local authorities are expected to support parents to access childcare, where they need it. Local authorities will work with schools and private, voluntary and independent (PVI) providers, including childminders, to introduce or expand before and after school childcare provision in their area.
Schools and trusts are central to the delivery of the programme as they operate at the heart of the community, understand the needs of local families, and are usually the first port of call for parents for wraparound childcare.
For further information and guidance, please contact the Wraparound childcare co-ordinator wraparoundchildcare@northyorks.gov.uk
If you are a parent looking for childcare options for your primary school aged child, speak to your child’s school or contact the Families Information Service to find out what wraparound care is currently available in your area.
