Simply Play, an award winning West Lothian based childcare service, is coming to Pumpherston and Uphall Station Community Primary School.

Following a short consultation with our parents it was clear that there was a demand for after school childcare based within our school. We are delighted that Simply Play, in partnership with West Lothian Council, are committed to delivering this. We expect this service to be ready to start in January 2019; we will of course keep you informed along the way.

Simply Play was formed in 2010 in partnership with West Lothian Council. It was created to be a professionally run, charitable social enterprise, to take over the provision of out of school and holiday childcare, across West Lothian. Simply Play specialising in childcare for primary aged children is regulated by the Care Inspectorate. It currently operates 10 after school clubs across West Lothian, employs more than 70 staff who are all registered with the Scottish Social Services Council and are members of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups Scheme.
