Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if he will make an estimate of the number and proportion of schools in England that have an after-school club.

In March 2022, the department surveyed teachers and school leaders in the School and College Panel. The results of this survey revealed that 65% of primary schools that responded offered after-school childcare. When weighted to be nationally representative, this translates to around 11,000 primary schools.
