Breakfast Club Fees and Payment Policy

Aim

We aim to ensure that our Breakfast Club offers a service to all our parents and carers regardless of their socio-economic background.

Methods

• In order to achieve this aim we will run the Breakfast Club for five sessions per week, Monday - Friday.
• Our Breakfast Club will begin at 7.30am and end at 8.30am. Breakfasts are served between 7.30am and 8.15am. A grab and go option will be provided to children arriving after this time.
• We set our fees according to the community’s demands, taking into account the setting’s costs.
• Pre booking of sessions either paid for or free (in receipt of Free School Meals) is an important requirement to ensure we are providing the correct child/adult ratio

Pre-booked Sessional costs

• We expect parents / carers to book and pay for sessions in advance, as far as is possible, before the start of each half term.
• From 7.30am - 8am breakfast club will be available at the cost of £3 per child or free for those children eligible for free school meals. Between 8am - 8.30am breakfast club will be free for all children as part of the Government's breakfast club initiative. 
• If sufficient places have not been booked to maintain the financial viability of the setting we reserve the right to close Bassett Green Primary School Breakfast Club until the beginning of the following term.

Late payment

• The financial viability of the Breakfast Club depends on the prompt payment of sessions.
• If this payment plan is not adhered to then the Breakfast Club may have to refuse your child entry to future sessions.

Booking your child to attend 

• Parents / carers will be asked to complete their booking on the Arbor parent app or portal.
• Parents / carers must not knowingly book their child into a session they will not then attend.
• Sessions should be booked in advance. 

Absences

• When a session is booked it is held open for that child whether or not they then attend.
• For pupils in receipt of Free School Meals their place will not be held open continuously and will be withdrawn after 3 booked and missed sessions.

Cancellation of Sessions  

• Breakfast Club will not operate on school Inset Days.

Drop off

• The school site will open at 7.25am each day. Children must be walked up to breakfast club by their parent / carer. If a child arrives at breakfast unaccompanied by an adult then we reserve the right to withdraw your child's space from breakfast club.
