Information packs

We know how hard it is to track down all the information that you need when you're starting up an out of school club. To make your life easier we have pulled together packs of essential policies and forms that all clubs need.

If you are unsure which pack is right for you, see our Which template pack? guide.

The template documents are supplied as editable Word files so that it is easy to tailor them for your own setting and then print out as many copies as you need.

The majority of our template packs are delivered via a download link in the confirmation email, so that you can start using them immediately. The download link is active for 48 hours from the time of purchase.

OOSA members enjoy a 20% discount on our template packs. Please log in in order to access the discounted prices.
