Boosting Attendance and Punctuality with Wraparound Care

Introduction 

Attendance and punctuality are critical components of a successful educational experience. Schools often face challenges in ensuring that pupils attend regularly and arrive on time. Wraparound care has proven to be an effective solution to these issues, providing structured, engaging activities that encourage children to come to school consistently and on time. At school of Play, our wraparound care programme is designed to address these challenges, creating a positive impact on attendance and punctuality. 

Engaging Activities 

Our wraparound care programme includes a variety of engaging activities that make school an exciting place for children. By offering a range of fun and educational sessions before and after school, we ensure that pupils are motivated to attend regularly and punctually. Activities such as sports, arts and crafts, and interactive workshops provide children with something to look forward to every day. 

Examples of Engaging Activities: 

  • Sports Sessions: Regular physical activity sessions not only promote health but also instil a sense of routine and discipline, encouraging children to arrive at school on time. 
  • Creative Arts and Crafts: These sessions engage children’s imaginations and provide a relaxing start or end to the school day, making them more eager to attend. 
  • Interactive Workshops: Topics such as science experiments, storytelling, and drama captivate children’s interests, ensuring they are excited about attending school and participating in these unique learning opportunities. 

 

Structured Routine 

A consistent before and after school routine is essential in promoting punctuality. Our wraparound care programme helps establish a structured schedule for children, reducing tardiness and improving overall attendance. By integrating fun and educational activities into their daily routine, we create a stable environment that supports children’s academic and personal growth. 

Benefits of a Structured Routine: 

  • Improved Punctuality: Regularly scheduled activities help children develop a habit of arriving on time, which translates into better punctuality during the regular school hours. 
  • Enhanced Focus: A structured routine helps children transition smoothly from home to school, improving their focus and readiness to learn. 
  • Psychological Benefits: Routine provides children with a sense of security and stability, which is crucial for their emotional well-being and academic success.

Case Studies: 

“My son has been to a couple of different after school clubs and would always moan about having to go. Since going to School of Play he has not once told me he doesn’t want to be there and on more that one occasion moaned that we picked him up top early. This is thanks to the wonderful staff and the different activities on offer.” – Parent at Urmston Primary

“As a business, they are always striving to better themselves by actively seeking and responding to parent feedback and suggestions. Myself and my daughter would highly recommend it, which is reflected in the ‘Why did you collect me early’ comments I continuously receive. Thank you so much, and keep up the amazing work.” – Chelsea Beck-Daniel at Urmston Primary
