The cost for each term is £20 or FREE for parent/carers whose children are eligible for free school meals.

 There may be other circumstances where parent/carers are suffering financial hardship in which case they are encouraged to apply for a bursary, which will cover the total cost of attending the Centre. No parent/carer should feel that their child can not come to the Centre for financial reasons. (If you would like to apply for a bursary, please contact GMS, or speak to your child’s class teacher or headteacher).
