The sessions are free for families who claim benefit related free school meals and are provided by a range of local organisations and groups.
Free places may also be available to children in vulnerable groups, including children with special educational needs (SEND) or young carers, who are not currently in receipt of free school meals. A small fee may be applicable for other applicants.
Places are available on a first come, first served basis, with priority given to children who receive free school meals and those with vulnerabilities.
The sessions are funded by the Department for Education (DfE).
