Play service
The Play Team provides inclusive all year round provision for children aged five – 11 years and specialist all year round out of school provision for young people aged 11 – 19 years with learning difficulties and physical disabilities.
We work closely with other professional organisations such as the Inclusive Play Opportunities Project (IPOP) and Barnet Play Association (BPA) to serve the needs and interests of children, young people and families in Barnet.
We also work with OFSTED to make sure that all our provision meets the legal registration requirements.
