Charging for school activities

When do you charge for services, if at all? If your school runs a chilcare programme or out-of-hours activities, how do you raise the money to run them?

An overview of charging for school activities can be found on GovernorNet.

The Extended Schools programme is designed to benefit pupils and the community by opening the school's facilities and education programmes to parents and local residents. Schools may charge for some of these activities.
