What your child gets every afternoon

A calm, structured club after school, so you can work or study knowing they're safe and their homework is done.

Safe hand-over

We collect from Seven Kings Primary (Ilford) and Valence Primary (Dagenham), with daily sign-in and sign-out.

Supervised at all times

Staff are with the children from collection until pick-up, in a calm, safe space.

Homework time

Supervised homework with qualified staff on hand to help.

Play and activities

Reading, games and creative activities once homework is done.

Checked, trained staff

DBS-checked and first-aid trained, with safeguarding procedures in place.

Ready for pick-up

Homework done and ready to go home from 6pm, with late pick-up until 7pm.

One simple hourly rate

Our club is £12.50 an hour. Every family pays the same rate, whether or not they get funding.

Funding depends on your circumstances. DWP and Student Finance England decide eligibility, not All Bright.

Questions parents ask

Do I have to be on benefits?

No. Any family can book. Funding just makes it cheaper if you qualify.

Do you fill in my funding application?

No. You complete and sign your own application. Our form guide explains each question and the evidence you need, and our team can answer questions on WhatsApp.

Can I use Universal Credit and the Childcare Grant together?

Usually not for the same childcare costs. Our guides check this before you go further.

Can I visit first?

Yes. Book a visit and see the club before you commit.
