Holiday Care

Holiday Clubs and Playclubs are run by the Early Years & Extended School Service section of Reading Borough Council as well as private and voluntary groups. They run during school holidays and are usually run by a team of staff, led by a Play Leader who must hold a Level 3 childcare qualification. All sites are OFSTED registered and follow their requirements.
