New Toolkit Supports Promotion of Wraparound Childcare

Bradford district schools receive resources to inform families

Schools in the Bradford district have been provided with a new communications toolkit designed to help promote wraparound childcare for primary school children aged 5 to 11. The toolkit aims to support schools in sharing information about local childcare options with families.

Purpose of the Toolkit

The toolkit includes marketing materials and logos that schools can use to raise awareness of wraparound childcare services available in the area. This initiative comes as families often seek information about childcare options that accommodate their schedules outside of standard school hours.

Contents and Use

• Details on how to find local wraparound childcare providers
• Marketing and communication materials tailored for primary school audiences
• Official logos for schools to incorporate into their communications

The resources are intended to make it easier for schools to respond to enquiries from parents and carers regarding childcare availability and to promote the services effectively within their communities.

Wraparound Childcare in Bradford

Wraparound childcare typically refers to care provided before and after the standard school day, supporting working families and those needing flexible childcare arrangements. The availability and variety of these services can vary across the district.

By equipping schools with these communication tools, the local education authority aims to improve access to information and encourage greater uptake of wraparound childcare services.
