National Guidance and Finance

"In March 2023, 36% of parents of primary ages children reported that they had used some kind of wraparound childcare for their primary aged children since the start of term (equating to around 1.6m children). For these families, it is an invaluable support, delivered by passionate, experienced professionals, who place children at the heart of what they offer."

(National Wraparound Childcare Programme Handbook, 2024)
