Some specialist sessions (like themed clubs or workshops) may be slightly more - these will be clearly marked in advance. There’s no minimum booking and no commitment - just book the sessions that suit your family. Sessions run in either the morning or afternoon, depending on the day and venue. Children can attend multiple sessions per week, but no child may attend more than 18 hours per week, in line with national guidance for unregistered educational settings.We gently encourage families to book just one session per day. \rThree hours of focused, independent learning is often the perfect amount - and doubling up can be quite tiring for some children (especially those who are still adjusting to group settings). We want every child to feel successful and comfortable - not overloaded.Our sessions are held in carefully chosen community centres, church halls, and village halls around Torbay. We’ve put a lot of thought into selecting spaces that are welcoming, clean, and practical - and we always consider the little things that might make children feel anxious, such as: Where the toilets are, where they can get a drink, where do you go when you arrive and where will they meet their parent or carer afterwards." } ] } ] ```
