Why should schools seek external providers to facilitate wraparound care?

The key to success:

  • Dedicated leadership structures
  • Clear definition for the child of the end of school and start of after-school
  • Different staff, play workers
  • Relaxed atmosphere and relaxation areas
  • Arts and crafts
  • Free play
  • Wholesome snacks
  • There must be a careful and sustained process of trust building between the school and the wrap around provider
  • Both parties need to understand each other's aims, priorities and working methods
  • Each party will be governed by differing governmental departments Legislative requirements for running a wrap around care unit are demanding.
