Quality Works is the most comprehensive quality improvement toolkit available for out of school and wraparound childcare settings in England. Whether you’re a lone operator taking your first look at your practice, or a multi-site organisation seeking consistent quality across your portfolio, there’s a level that’s right for you.

All packages include the Quality Works Toolkit - your organisational licence to the Manual, facilitation guides, quick wins guides and supporting resources. The Scorecard and Quality Report are included for your first setting, with simple bolt-on access available for additional settings.

Running more than one setting?

Quality Works is designed to work across your whole organisation, not just one setting. Your Toolkit licence covers your organisation as a whole - one Manual, one set of guides, one framework. The Scorecard and Quality Report are the per-setting elements, because every setting deserves its own baseline and its own improvement journey.

It’s simple: purchase Quality Works at the level that’s right for you, and bolt on Scorecard access for each additional setting at a flat rate. Contact us at [email protected] to purchase additional settings.

Level 3 Premium - multi-site: Because Premium includes open-ended delivery commitments, training sessions, mentoring, OOSA Academy course access and more, multi-site Premium packages are always individually scoped. The numbers and needs vary too much depending on your team size and structure to offer a meaningful flat rate. Contact us at [email protected] and we’ll build a proposal that works for your organisation.

Local authority and commissioner purchasing: If you’re a local authority or commissioner looking to fund Quality Works access for a cohort of settings, we work with you on a direct quote basis. Get in touch at [email protected] to discuss your requirements.
