Wraparound Care

Extended Wraparound Care

We are delighted with how the key updates to our wraparound care provision have become standard practice, with our complementary Prep session for pupils (up to Y5) and the Early & Late Ravens sessions offering greater flexibility and support for our families.

Since September, the wraparound care hours are:
Bevendean* (Pre-Prep): 7.30am – 6.00pm
Prep site: 7.15am – 6.00pm

*Mini Transition pupils may attend Wrap Around Care from the term in which they turn three years old. Until reaching this milestone, they are welcome between 8.00am and 4.30pm.

Pre-Prep (Bevendean) Information

  • Regular bookings: For regular Early Ravens, Prep or Late Ravens bookings at Bevendean, we kindly ask that you provide one full term’s notice wherever possible. This enables us to plan staffing efficiently and ensures compliance with Early Years statutory requirements for our youngest children. Please make these bookings via SOCS.
  • Ad-hoc or short-notice bookings: For occasional, short-notice, or additional bookings during the term, please contact the Bevendean Office directly. Where possible, provide at least one day’s notice.
  • Mini Transition children turning three in the Autumn/Spring term: For Mini Transition children who turn three during the Autumn or Spring term, bookings for Early Ravens and Late Ravens must be made via the Bevendean Office.

Please note: As per the Prep site, if you do not require a specific session, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice of non-attendance otherwise you will be charged.

Prep Information

  • Parents are kindly requested to book their child(ren)’s Early Ravens and Late Ravens sessions for the entire term wherever possible. SOCS allows for ‘block booking’ of weekly slots for each day, whether for Early Ravens, Late Ravens, or both. This approach assists us in managing staffing and catering arrangements efficiently.
  • For one-off or flexible support, and where daily bookings are required for Early Ravens, Late Ravens, or both, please contact Reception or your child’s form tutor no later than 13:00 on the day.Please note: If you select a block booking, for instance Late Ravens every Monday, you will be invoiced for every session booked. However, if you do not require a specific session, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice of non-attendance. This enables staff to record the absence as ‘authorised’ (and you will not be charged). Absences without sufficient notice will be considered ‘unauthorised’ and will be charged accordingly.
