Extended school – breakfast and after-school clubs

Breakfast Club

The breakfast Club operates as a drop-in. There is no need to book in advance. Children must be at least 5 years old to attend. The breakfast club runs from 8.00 am to 8.55 am

NOTE Children will not be admitted after 8.30 am

We provide a healthy breakfast: cereal, toast, fruit juice, hot drinks plus one hours’ childcare in a safe and calm environment. The cost for this service is £2.50 per day for working families, £2.00 per day for families entitled to free school meals.

Brookfield After School Club (BASC)

Brookfield After School Club (BASC) provides a range of supervised play and learning opportunities for children aged 5-11 years old between the hours of 3.30-6pm. Unfortunately we are unable to provide after school care for under 5’s due to carer:child ratio requirements.

How to make a booking

To book, once you are logged in, click on ‘order sessions’ and then select the date and which option you require (either ‘clubs’ which books your child from 3.30 – 4.30pm, or ‘playcentre’ which books your child from 3.30 – 6pm. You then need to select your rate – please see the table below which tells you which code relates to which rate. This is also on Scopay. If you’re not sure, just call us, or drop us an email

After School Club Booking FAQs

How do I pay for my bookings? You will need to pay at the time of booking, so simply top up your account before making a new booking. You can book up to 30 days in advance, rolling throughout the school year.

Can I book on the day? The system is unable to take on the day bookings, however we know that exceptional circumstances, sometimes arise. Please email us, or call the office in this event.

What if I need to make a change to my booking? If you need to change, cancel or amend any future bookings, you can do this on Scopay. Simply select the booking you wish to change – to cancel, just click on ‘no selection on this day’. To make a change or amend an error (e.g. you’ve booked until 4.30pm but actually want to book until 6pm), cancel the booking first and then input it under the correct code. There is a key to the codes on scopay, and listed below here. If you are not sure which code to use, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with the office.

Why can’t I book until the end of the half term? The booking system is set up to allow bookings on a rolling 30 day period, so you will need to go in and create the rest of the bookings

Late collections will be charged at £5 per child and may result in your child’s place being reviewed.
