LEAP – Larkswood Extended Activities Provision
Larkswood extended activities provision offers a range of clubs and enrichment activities before, during and after school. Children attending will be able to participate in a rich programme of activities, which embed the schools moral purpose of “Putting Learners First”.
LEAP has been established to support parents and carers through offering an affordable quality extended hours provision.
LEAP will include a varied programme of enrichment and extension activities within and beyond the school day for pupils to enjoy.
LEAP will be non-profit making. Any income generated, beyond covering running costs, will be allocated to support additional activities and increase opportunities for children.
LEAP will be lead in a co-operative way, which supports parents and community needs.
LEAP will be monitored and regularly reviewed to ensure quality and value.

LEAP Parents Agreement
Payments:
LEAP Clubs are payable weekly in advance via Arbor. Bookings will automatically renew unless you cancel your child’s place. If your child does not attend the LEAP session/option booked, you will still be charged for the option you have chosen e.g. breakfast club and/or option 1 or 2.
Your account must be in credit and failure to do so will mean your child’s place will not be accepted and services suspended.
Cancellation by you:
Cancellation must be received in writing (via email or letter) with a minimum of one school weeks notice.
Cancellation by us:
If the club is cancelled on behalf of the school due to circumstances beyond our control a credit will be applied to your Arbor account. (Please note: this would only happen in an extreme emergency that prevented the school being open).
Debts:
We would like to remind you that we ask for all school services (school meals, LEAP After School/Breakfast Club or Nursery provision) balances to be kept in credit at all times. If debts are incurred, this impacts the school budget, which in turn means that money we should be spending on the children’s education has to be allocated elsewhere.
Arbor accounts for school services that remain in arrears will result in the immediate suspension of the service by the school until full payment is received. Arbor accounts will be reviewed weekly and failure to clear any unpaid amounts will result in the service not being available to your child/ren. Your child/ren’s place will be removed and offered to the next child on the waiting list.
