Wrap around childcare
Wraparound childcare is the term used by the Government to describe childcare provided outside standard school hours, before and after-school and during term time.
The National Wraparound Childcare Programme is part of the childcare reforms introduced by the Government, which aims to make wraparound childcare available to all primary school-aged children from 8am to 6pm, every school day during term time.
