INSET days: We know that it can be difficult for some parents to organise childcare when a school has an INSET day. Therefore, we provide a service where parents are able to drop their children to school as normal and we deliver activities for their children until their parents pick them up. Parents pay for this service and we organise all of the administration.
Holiday courses: Sports Xtra deliver our award winning holiday programmes at your school.
