Primary PlayCare Ltd

🚨IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT🚨 We will be texting/emailing all parents however in the meantime please feel free to share this info with friends, family if anyone who is likely to be collecting children from us today. Thank you in advance from everyone at PPC and please stay safe 🙏🏼

🚨 As many of our staff rely on public transport we are keen to do what we can to help them get home quickly and safely. We therefore ask that our parents and carers assist us where they can with an earlier pick up of their children from out of school care

🚨IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT🚨 Due to the amber weather warning that is in place and the impact that Storm Dudley is expected to have across the country we have taken the decision to close our services at 5pm this evening.

The results are in from our Care Inspectorate visit at our Gaelic School Service - ⭐️Care & Support 5 ⭐️Staffing 4, ⭐️Environment 4, ⭐️Quality & Leadership 5. Delighted to say the least 🎊🙌🏼

@SGGArdsgoil @ELCScotGov We are delighted that our services will resume on 15th March. Our drive to minimise the spread of CV-19 will continue with the measures we have in place already but heightened with the roll out of the vaccine and planned twice weekly testing for our staff

Regulated childcare, including breakfast and after-school clubs, for primary pupils will also re-start on 15 March as part of the Phase 2 return.

Taking part in today’s @SOSCN meeting regarding funding and sustainability within the sector. We are all most definitely in the same boat fighting against the same storm 😔

@NewbyresNursery @SOSCN @MareeToddMSP @JohnSwinney So sad to hear this 😔

@ELCScotGov @MareeToddMSP @JohnSwinney @EducationScot @CareInspect @CaFTeam @COSLA @earlyyearsscot @NdnaScotland @ScotChildmind @CALAchildcare Parents tell us they are so grateful for the continuity, care and support our staff have given their children during these uncertain times. So lovely to be appreciated ❤️

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 ✨Thank you to all childcare staff including childminders, practitioners, school aged childcare staff & the whole childcare community for everything you do to make sure children & families feel loved, nurtured & cared for in these challenging times✨ ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

@SOSCN Place booked, thank you

@SOSCN @MareeToddMSP @JohnSwinney Really hope that @MareeToddMSP & @JohnSwinney recognise how critical the situation is within Out of School Care. Great letter from @SOSCN.. thank you for fighting our corner 🙏🏼

@GillT27 @SOSCN @Sweetiebrae Got it 👍🏼just trying to figure out a way to make it work & help with sustainability. Working on a short, med & long term solution based on what the announcement on the 2nd brings. Hoping some form of phased return of pupils pushes the numbers up & fund bolsters the shortfall 🤞🏼

@SOSCN @PrimaryPlayCare @Sweetiebrae grant amounts have been released on the scotgov website

@WiseoldowlSLT @ELCScotGov @MareeToddMSP @earlyyearsscot @ScotChildmind @NdnaScotland @CALAchildcare @COSLA_CYP @CareInspect @EducationScot I appreciate that this might be easier within an out of school care setting than a nursery especially if a phased return or blended-learning scenario plays out but we are just trying to be as creative as we can with our thinking.... hope it works 🤞🏼

Today we have updated information on the childcare sector Temporary Restrictions Fund, including grant levels and eligibility. 1/2

@WiseoldowlSLT @ELCScotGov @MareeToddMSP @earlyyearsscot @ScotChildmind @NdnaScotland @CALAchildcare @COSLA_CYP @CareInspect @EducationScot We are working on a number of scenarios from 15th onwards one of which could be that the criteria for children who can attend might widen. This would then provide additional fee income as well as the transitional fund to support reduced numbers.

@ELCScotGov @MareeToddMSP @earlyyearsscot @ScotChildmind @NdnaScotland @CALAchildcare @COSLA_CYP @CareInspect @EducationScot Appreciate any support that is available to help us through these challenging times. Thank you

@ELCScotGov @MareeToddMSP @earlyyearsscot @ScotChildmind @NdnaScotland @CALAchildcare @COSLA_CYP @CareInspect @EducationScot Thank you for responding and issuing the update. We will now focus on whether this will be enough to get us all through the coming months
