Can breakfast and after school clubs be used to deliver provision during the Pathfinder project?
Pathfinders can use breakfast and after school clubs to deliver flexibility in response to parental demand. The Code of Practice on the provision of free nursery education places for 3 and 4 year-olds (paragraph 11.10) makes registration with Ofsted a condition of funding only if it is required for that particular type of provider. In using such provision, though, local authorities will need to assure themselves that the provider in question is delivering quality provision in accordance with EYFS, and can demonstrate that the other conditions set out in paragraph 11.10 in the Code are being met. Paragraph 12.3 of the Code makes it clear that all providers delivering free provision must submit to inspection by Ofsted if necessary.
