Extended Services

What does Extended Services mean?

By 2010, every school in England will provide a range of extended services either on its own site or in partnership with other schools or community organisations, and will be able to signpost you to appropriate services elsewhere in your area.

This will enable all children and young people, families, parents and carers, and even members of the local community to have easy access to these services when they need them.

All Snaith Cluster schools are already providing the basic requirements of the Extended Services "Full Core Offer" to help meet the needs of pupils, their families and the wider community.

These services include:

• A varied menu of activities and childcare for children in primary school. In the Snaith Cluster, this provision of off school sites.
• A varied menu of activities in a safe place for young people in secondary schools.
• A range of parenting support and Family learning.
• Swift and Easy Access to specialist support services such as health and social care.
• Opportunities for the community to use local school facilities and to take part in adult learning activities
