Breakfast clubs

Many schools across Barnsley run breakfast clubs, providing childcare for parents who are in work or training. Children who attend breakfast clubs benefit in a number of ways in terms of their health, school attendance and attainment.

Breakfast clubs:

• provide a healthy nutritious start to the day
• help children to be alert and ready to learn
• encourage children to mix with their friends
• improve attendance and performance throughout the day
• reassure parents that their child is safe when dropped off in the morning

Most breakfast clubs start at 8am. They provide children with breakfast, a safe environment, and an opportunity to engage in a range of activities. There's a charge for the service, so check this with the provider as it can vary.
