FAQ's

How do I apply for a place for my child?

In order to enrol your child at Learning Clubhouse a simple straight forward registration form needs to be completed. Upon completion of the application form, your child will be given a place in a class depending on space availability. If the maximum capacity has been reached for the centre then your child’s name will be placed on a waiting list with an expected enrolment date provided.

We encourage parents to come with their children and visit our centre in order to fully appreciate our friendly, safe and nurturing environment. It is highly recommended that you call the centre first, rather than just turn up. Since we are a very busy centre, making an appointment will prevent long waiting times. A visit to the centre can help alleviate any worries or concerns that you may have and give you an opportunity to ask any relevant questions.

What age groups do you cater for?

We provide our services for children and young people between the ages of 5 – 15.

When do I need to pay?

Payments are to be made on a weekly or monthly basis and the preferred mode of payment is via a standing order setup with your bank. There is no reduction in fees for temporary absence due to holidays or sickness.

Receipts are prepared monthly for payments received and will be available to collect from the office at the beginning of each month.

Hot Meals

Here at Learning Clubhouse we believe that it is essential that all meals children have are well balanced and packed with nutrients so that they have adequate energy levels until their next meal time.

Taking this into consideration we believe that it is fundamental for children to be provided with healthy and nutritional hot food during their time at the club.

Children that arrive straight from school are provided with a hot meal. We also provide balanced nutritional snacks which include fresh fruit, toast, fruit juice and fresh drinking water is available at all times. Individual dietary requirements and parental preferences are met wherever possible.

What happens if my child was to become ill whilst at the club?

We keep a record of your contact details and the child’s next of Kin in case we can’t reach you in an emergency and those of the family doctor. We also keep a record of any medical conditions your child may have. If your child becomes ill or sustains an injury we would make contact with you using the information provided on your registration form and ask for them to be collected or taken to the hospital. There will always be a First Aider on the premises.

What happens if I am running late to collect my child?

Please inform us as soon as you can if you are running late.

If you are going to arrive later than our closing time we will need to keep 2 members of staff onsite until all children have been collected. If we know you are going to be late we can make an arrangement with our staff team and ensure your child knows that you will be arriving late. We could impose a late payment fee. If we do not hear from you after 20 minutes then a next of kin will be contacted to collect the child.

How is the progress of students learning assessed?

All learners undertake a comprehensive initial assessment where we assess their current strengths and weaknesses. Subsequently an individual learning plan is compiled by the subject teacher detailing both short and long term targets and an appropriate timescale to achieve them.

Do you have parents' evenings to discuss students' progress?

At Learning Clubhouse we make sure that your child receives very focused and levelled reports. Parental involvement is highly encouraged hence parents evenings are held every quarter where we offer parents the opportunity to discuss their child’s progress and go through any concerns that they may have.
