Discussion point 1:
In the survey the most popular option was for the extended session and not 2 eight hour days. Next year we will have to look at how we can develop this more flexible delivery.How do you suggest that this could be provided?

600 hours Early Learning and Childcare

Parent Views
“The increased nursery session was very helpful. It helped me have enough time to prepare their meals before they come home.”
“He enjoyed his extra time and seemed to have more stories to me about his day.”
“Great!! What a difference an extra 30 minutes makes.”
“ The additional time is a good idea but I prefer if it could be at the end (of the morning).”

Parent Views
“I think it will be useful to have an extra 40 minutes childcare per day...I can see this being quite difficult to implement.”
“I have a daughter in school and it would make no sense to go home for 10 minutes then to have to return to pick up at nursery.”
“I didn’t use the extra time as it means we have to wait in the cold for an extra 15 minutes for Daniels sister to go into school.”
“ I would rearrange my classes in future if nursery hours were longer. A lot better longer.”

Parent Views
“She gets breakfast in our house with myself which I feel is important.”
“Extra start time has been good for my child, but this start time was a bit close to primary start for it to make any difference to me.”
“Couldn’t get them motivated and out the door earlier.”

What the Children said.
“I liked playing longer.”“I liked it because it was quiet”“I liked having more time to play.”
“I was tired.”

Issues to consider.• Nurseries with a small staff team e.g. 20/20
have less flexibility as all staff are required in the ratios at all times.
• Many nurseries have surplus staff for part of the year. More effective use of this resource would address many of the challenges of providing the additional session time.
![Page 36: 600 Hours Update The Early Learning and Childcare Parent/Carer Survey has been open until Friday 24 January. Responses are still being returned at the](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551bc02e550346c3588b49e6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Key Learning from uptake
• All children starting and finishing at the same time is not popular with staff or parents.
• A short timeframe between the morning session and afternoon session increases pressure on staff.

Discussion Point 2
On your table you have examples of staggered session times. Discuss how you think this
could work for your establishment, what are the challenges and what are the solutions.
What would be your choice for your establishment?
