Notice Information

Notice Title

Newham Holiday Activities and Food 2023 (HAF)

Notice Description

The Department of Education (DfE) has confirmed that all Local Authorities in England will receive funding to co-ordinate a local Holiday Activities and Food Programme (HAF) during Easter, summer and December school holidays of 2023-2024. The overall purpose of the grant is to enable the Council to coordinate and provide free holiday provision during the Easter, summer and Christmas school holidays for children that are eligible for benefits-related free school meals. HAF holiday provision includes healthy food, access to positive activities and nutritional advice and guidance. School holidays can be a particularly difficult time for some families because of reduced income or increased costs relating to food and childcare. For some children this can lead to holiday hunger and a holiday experience gap, with children from these families more likely to experience 'unhealthy holidays' in terms of nutrition and physical health. These children are also less likely to access organised out-of-school activities and more likely to experience social isolation. All of these issues can have a lasting effect on children and young people's health and wellbeing, and lead to lower levels of educational attainment. Additional information: Lot 1: Universal provision for primary school aged children This provision is for primary school aged children who are eligible for the service. These children will not have significant or complex special educational needs and / or disabilities, however, 12% of overall places must be available for children and young people who may need low-level SEND support. Lot 2: Universal provision for secondary school aged children This provision is for secondary school aged children and young people who are eligible for the service. These children will not have significant or complex special educational needs and / or disabilities, however, 12% of overall places must be available for children and young people who may need low- level SEND support. A programme in this category must be designed so that it is appealing to participants and can achieve high levels of engagement. It should look very different to a programme aimed at the primary age range. Factors that should be considered are times of sessions, type of venue, food offer and types of activities. Lot 3: Specialist provision for children with targeted or specialist special educational needs and / or disabilities (SEND) This provision is for children and young people with targeted or specialist SEND needs. In school, these children will get support which is extra to, or different from, the support given to most children in their class. Those with significant or more complex needs may also need specialist support, which may come not just from the school but from health and care services too. Due to the high level of need and support required, universal HAF provision will be unsuitable for children and young people with targeted or specialist SEND needs. Lot 3 providers will be required to demonstrate that they have appropriately trained staff, staff to child ratios, knowledge and experience to work with children with severe, profound and multiple SEND needs.
