Parents of students who attend private settings pay fees, funding the setting, e.g. day nurseries. Private settings have the right to select the students who attend them. Statutory settings are provided by the government and have to be available for children, by law, to attend e.g. a primary school. Voluntary settings are sometimes funded by communities through donations, charities, and volunteers or by the people who attend them e.g. 0’clock clubs.
One voluntary setting in my area, which provides care and education for children, is Brunswick Youth Club. The club provides evening activities for children Monday to Friday term time and through school holidays. The club also offers holiday schemes where children have the opportunity to go on trips to leisure centres, theatre shows and the cinema, and also weekend trips to adventure sites. Brunswick Youth Club helps parents who need extra money by enabling them to work longer hours (after school hours and during the school holidays) with no membership fee. It also gives children a chance to interact with other children, learn new skills, get creative and even join a sports team. Brunswick helps children to gain confidence in many areas such as working independently and within a team, communicating and building relationships with others. The club helps children to learn about key skills such as time keeping, organisation and independence. ‘The Brunswick Club is a large well-equipped centre where young people can come and enjoy a variety of leisure time activities in a comfortable, safe and friendly environment’ – The Brunswick Club (2008).
