How much do you pay for after-school clubs?

[JuiceBoxJuggler]

Hello!

Just quick question; wondering the average people pay for after-school clubs; roughly 1 hour or 1.5 hours. Just to be more specific, this is an after-school club and not after-school care.

Interested primarily in those who have children in the North West, but happy for all to input.

Thanks,

At our old school it was £2 per session, 1 hour long.

Current school it's free and clubs are 50 mins.

This is for things like choir, art club, sports clubs, Lego club etc.

ours is £2.25 now, it was £2 until this term. It runs until 4pm.

Do you mean a club as in a hobby? It will vary hugely depending on the activity, can you be more specific?

Our school outsources to companies, I think we pay about £6 for a 1 hour after school sports club?

Apologies, it is STEM/Computing related.

Do you mean a school run extra curricular club?
They vary from free to £10 a half term at our school (art bring the most expensive).

But there's a couple of outside providers, where its about £4 a week

I'm in NI, we pay £6 for a one hour coding class for our 6yo once a week if that's any use. :)

I believe it is a third party - or private business - that runs this.

Costs are currently £9 per session, just wanted to see what others were paying. Don't mind paying as Computing/STEM isn't as strong in the primaries where we live so it would give them that uplift ready for KS3.

After school football club is £4 here, I’m in the east of England.

Do you mean within the school? Or external to school?
Paid after school clubs within the school are between £7-£15 a session depending on the type of club. External clubs are £25-50 monthly depending on the activity

It is held within school - seperate company; not school staff.

Our school don't charge for clubs held in the school. They contract in the other companies and cover the cost themselves. There are various sports/STEM/drama clubs on each week

This is amazing - I don't think many would cover it in our area.

I'm paying £6-£7 for after school football and gymnastics. They are run by external providers. This is at the school fields and halls. If it's STEM/Computing, I'd expect to pay more.

The £6-7 is per session, not for a whole term.

This is what I thought too - thank you. £9 does seem reasonable.

Reasonable is what parents are willing and able to pay.

I think the majority of patents at DDs school would laugh if you suggested an hours club for that...

For what, the £9 per session?

Clubs are part of the wraparound care at our school as it is so small. It’s £4.10 for 1hr 3.30-4.30.
Then after school care continues 4.30-5.30
for another £4.10.

Science/coding clubs are free at school for us. Some other clubs like ballet and drama are around £10 per session.

We pay £10 per term for all after school clubs. They're all run by school staff.

It seems that there is no one fit solution and/or cost. I believe, it may also be down to areas in the country, counties, towns/villages or the type of primaries etc.

Yes.
For full context... we pay a total of £30 per month for all our DDs extra curricular activities. Thats school clubs, sports and Scouts, for 2 children.

People only tend to pay that much for swimming.

Computing and STEM are run by teachers for free.

What a fantastic deal you get! Jealous.

School run clubs are 4.50 per week, clubs run by outside companies such as tennis are around £90 per term.
