CMAC is a privately run company committed to equal opportunity, employing staff who live locally. The club is run by qualified and experienced staff who are all DBS checked with a First-aider. Our ratio is 1/10 children and we maintain a a close working relationship with school.  We are registered with Ofsted and insured with a dedicated childcare company.

We aim to provide a safe, secure and relaxed environment, adopting a home from home atmosphere for the children to enjoy and develop.

To attend the club, you need to register your child. This is done by filling out the necessary forms. These forms will contain information concerning your child, is confidential and needs to be updated as your circumstances change. 

We will make every effort to include children with physical or learning challenges. We liaise with parents/carers to assess your childs individual needs and risk assess our resources/staffing/environment to ensure safety for the child and all in the club. We also involve school's SENCO to provide continuity of care. We would need to know if your child is taking prescribed medication that needs administering during club hours.

Before attending we invite parent/carer/child to come and see the club so we can all be introduced and encourage early collection on their first day. An EYFS ( Early Years Foundation-Reception) child will be allocated a keyworker to support induction and settling-in.

At the point of registration a £5.00 registration fee will be charged and fee paid in advance. Once your place is booked you pay for the sessions booked even if your child is off for any reason. Bank holidays and School closures will not be charged for. Non-payment of fees will incur a weekly £10.00 late fee charge and your place terminated. Two weeks notice of leaving or changes in your booked days must be given.

We offer a range of activities, including cooking, arts & crafts, Wii, recreational games, imaginary play, outdoor, sports and much more. During their time at the club, children choose activities they enjoy. We also accommodate homework space for children who want to do so.

Children in Reception are collected by the staff and taken to the hall. A register is taken and the children also sign themselves in. Please let your teacher know that your child attend the club. If your child is off school we need to know prior. In cases of school sending your child home or in an emergency let as know as soon as possible.

We are unable to care for children who are unwell. If your child become sick whilst at the club we will contact you to collect.

Precautions are taken to ensure safety but accidents do occur. We have a first-aider and first aid kit. We carry out termly emergency evacuations.

Children are signed-out on collection by named people on the registration form. If you are sending someone not on the form, we will not let your child go unless you have let us know prior and password given.

The club closes promptly at 5.45pm if you're delayed let us know before as soon as you know you're going to be late. A late fee charge of £5.00 for every 15 minutes will be applied to cover staff overtime and transport costs incurred as a result of lateness.

We plan to create an environment in which children are safe and have a policy of identifying signs of abuse. If we have concerns of any abuse , it is promptly and appropriately responded to. We are mandatory reporters of Safeguarding in compliance with Ofsted and Local Authorities procedures.

Staff and children have created rules for behavior whilst at the club called the Ground rules. These are displayed for all the children to see. We recognise that unacceptable behaviour can occur from time to time for reasons not always evident or as a result of a disability, Our Behaviour policy encompasses all factors.
