Ysgol Penyffordd14th March 2016

Dear Parents,

Thank you for your responses to our breakfast club survey. They have been helpful in informing the governors in making their decision about breakfast club charges.

As you are aware, breakfast club funding will be cut by 44% from 1st April, 2016. Staff currently work from 8am until 9am, with the children attending the club between 8:15am and 8:45am. All funding is currently received from the Welsh Government, allowing the club to be a free of charge service for children. The funding has paid for staff, food and equipment. In order to maintain this service after April 1st, the decision has been taken to charge £2* per day for attendance at breakfast club (non-refundable) Children will continue to receive breakfast, as this is a requirement of the Welsh Government funding. Breakfast club costs are now subject to review based on a review of running costs.

Many of you requested an earlier start to the breakfast club, which the governors and staff have considered. We are pleased to inform you that we are able to offer breakfast club after the Easter holidays, starting at 8.05am. We will not be opening the doors until 8.05am so please do not send your child any earlier as they will not be supervised.

In order to ensure that we cover costs, we must insist that children are booked into the club on a retained places basis, two weeks in advance please.

Please indicate below the days of the week you wish to retain places for the first two weeks of the club (all places must be on a retained places basis), and send payment of £2 per day to retain your place. We request that the form be returned by next Monday 21st March. If paying by cheque please ensure they are to be made payable to Ysgol Penyffordd, cash will also be accepted for payment.

We are unable to take your child on an ad hoc daily basis, as this would be a huge administrative burden and unfortunately we don’t have sufficient staff. Also if your child does not attend the club but you have already paid, then we are unable to offer a refund or a swop of days.

Please note: If you do not want your child to attend breakfast club, please do not send them to school before 8:45am as they will not be supervised.
