6.0 CHILDCARE SUPPLY<br />
If we include the number of registered places with childminders then<br />
the number of out of school places per 100 children increases, but only<br />
slightly to 4.3.<br />
The maps in Figures 43 and 44 show the distribution of places for term<br />
time and holiday childcare including the number of registered places<br />
with childminders for children over the age of 5.<br />
While the distribution of places available for term time and holiday<br />
childcare are fairly similar to one another, the distribution of out of<br />
school care does not follow the same overall pattern of childcare supply.<br />
Noticeably in the case of out of school care, Clifton with Maidenway has<br />
the highest number of places per 100 children with 11.5 places for before<br />
and after school and nine places for holiday care (per 100 children).<br />
The table in Figure 45 shows the number of places by ward compared to<br />
the average across the bay. The area with the lowest number of places<br />
across both types of registered out of school provision is Preston, in<br />
terms of holiday care, Wellswood and Tormohun have low numbers, 0.4<br />
and 0.5 places per 100 children respectively.<br />
The number of places available in Shiphay with the Willows is higher<br />
than the average across both types of care. In St Marychurch (which<br />
has high numbers of childcare overall) there are higher than average<br />
numbers of holiday out of school care (5.9) but slightly lower than<br />
average numbers of before and after school care (2.8).<br />
Holiday Care<br />
In <strong>Torbay</strong> there are 14 providers registered with Ofsted to provide<br />
holiday care. Of these, six are out of school providers, five are daycare<br />
providers (mainly nurseries who are also registered for full day care)<br />
and three holiday schemes are run by schools. The majority are open<br />
between the hours of 8.30am and 5.30pm, with three open until<br />
6.00pm. The majority also provide over all the school holidays, with the<br />
Christmas break being the one holiday which is less well catered for.<br />
Before and After School Care<br />
For out of school care in term time, there are 20 providers registered<br />
with Ofsted to provide care either before or after school. Of these, 11<br />
