Initial Challenge
There wasn’t enough wraparound places within the local area providing wraparound care for our school children. The feedback from prospective parents and carers indicated the need and preference for a school based wraparound service. As a school, Soutbourne considered different options including running an internal wraparound service, however this created further challenges.
Approach
The Headteachers met with ActiveMe 360 to discuss the needs of the school; with Southbourne commenting on the overall process: ‘Contact was easy, informative and efficient. Setting up the wraparound provision was smooth sailing with ActiveMe 360 taking a leading role. They were on hand to answer any questions and queries that we had. ActiveMe 360 were dynamic in getting the provision up and running for the start of the new term, which was greatly received by parents and carers.’
Results
Southbourne have seen a significant increase in the number of children attending both the morning and after school provision.
The 3.15pm – 4.30pm session offers a club element from sports to cooking and crafts.
