What we do
How we can help

We have a range on in-person school age childcare specific training and and offer a bespoke consultancy service to help keep your childcare service in good health.

National policy and reasearch

As the national intermediary organisation in Scotland for school-age childcare, we are involved in advocacy work on behalf of the sector. We are often asked to provide expert opinion and offer views, on proposals, issues or policies affecting the sector either now, or in the future and this can be at national, local or even international levels.
