A summary
SEND Stay & Play sessions run every Monday (term time only), with our morning session starting at 10am (10 - 11.30am) and the afternoon session starting at 1pm (1-2.30pm). Tickets for the SEND sessions go live every Tuesday morning at 9am for the following weeks sessions. Please note, you only need to book a ticket for your child and not the adult attending. Our vision is to support parents and families of pre-school children that have been identified as having a special educational need or disability or parents have concerns that their child may have additional needs. We will offer a stimulating environment in our specialist sensory room where all children are welcome, respected and encouraged to fulfil their potential. Our inclusive stay and play group will allow children with SEND aged 1-4 years to develop their play; communication; and social interaction skills with the support of our experienced Universal Service Practitioners (USP). We provide a safe and non-judgemental environment to discover new activities and new ways to learn through play. It will be your responsibility to supervise your child whilst attending the stay and play and this will provide you with the opportunity to meet other parents and share your experiences. After sending your booking request we will share an online registration form with you that we ask you to complete either before your first session, or at the first session if support is required.

Supporting families in Wolverhampton
Stay & Plays help to supports children's play, which is important for a child’s wellbeing and promotes healthy development and social skills. Stay & Plays provides children with opportunities to have fun exploring and experimenting with a variety of toys and to engage in activities in a safe environment. By attending sessions parents are able to gain advise and support from practitioners and peers regarding their children learning and development at an early stage. Children’s speech and language development can be supported through conversation, stories and rhymes while attending. Stay & Play sessions also support parents in becoming their child’s first educator.

Please note that if you have booked and not attended for 2 weeks in a row then you risk being declined the next booking Stay & Play sessions run term time only.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
