Wraparound childcare at Coleridge
Wraparound childcare (before and after school) is provided by Fair Play Childcare Ltd, a company that is owned and managed by former Coleridge parent Sarah Miller.
Fair Play Breakfast and After-school clubs are run exclusively for Coleridge pupils.
We are Ofsted registered and offer high quality, safe care at four venues, both on and off the school site.
We work in collaboration with Coleridge, but we are a completely independent organisation; if you have any queries about Fair Play, please talk to Sarah Miller, not school staff.
The demand for wraparound childcare at Coleridge continues to grow and we therefore have to run a waiting list. We are hoping to expand our capacity in the near future to ensure that every parent/carer who needs a place with Fair Play can have one. We work hard to meet parents’ needs without comprising our high standards.
How to apply for a place at Fair Play
If you are new to the school…
Information for parents of children who will be joining reception in September 2025
You must accept the offer of a place in Reception at Coleridge from Haringey Council before you apply for a place at Fair Play.
When you have accepted Haringey’s offer, email fairplayoutofschool@gmail.com and tell us you would like a place for your child at Fair Play. We will email you an application form that you should complete and return by 30 May 2025.
We will let you know that we have received your application form and add your name to the Reception waiting list. Please note, the waiting list for new intake Reception children closes on 30 May 2025, so you must send us your application by then.
We will contact you by 30 June 2025 if we can offer you a place at Fair Play that matches your needs.
When your child is given a place at Fair Play, that place will be theirs throughout their school career/as long as you need it. You do not have to re-apply for a place each term/year.
If you do not hear from us by 30 June 2025, it means we have been unable to offer you a place and we recommend you seek alternative childcare if you will need it when your child starts school.
Unless you tell us otherwise, your child’s name will remain on the Fair Play waiting list, and we will contact you if a suitable place becomes available. Alternatively, you can email us at fairplayoutofschool@gmail.com to ask us to remove your child’s name from the list.

You can apply for a place for your child at Fair Play at any time. Email fairplayoutofschool@gmail.com and we will send you an application form.
We will only add your child’s name to the waiting list after we have received your completed application form.
You will then be sent an acknowledgment of receipt of your form, and we will contact you as soon as we are able to offer your child a place.
When your child is given a place at Fair Play, that place will be theirs throughout their school career/as long as you need it. You do not have to re-apply for a place each term/year.
