Nova Scotia Before and After Program : FAQ
When, where and how can I register my child for the Nova Scotia Before and After Program in my area?
Who is eligible to attend? Is it only for pre-primary children?
Children from pre-primary to Grade 6 are eligible to apply for the program. However, pre-primary, primary and grade one children (children ages 4, 5 and 6) have priority to enrol in new spaces offered by a NS BAP site.
If spaces exist at the NS BAP site once pre-primary, primary and grade one enrolment is complete, the Program Provider may extend NS BAP enrolment to other families with children attending school at the site, up to Grade 6 and/or age 12.
Each provider will determine their registration process.
Is there a deadline to apply?
Each provider will determine their own registration process including deadlines. Please contact the provider delivering the program at your school for more information.
Can I place my child in any Nova Scotia Before and After Program, in any school I want?
No. Your child is only eligible to register in the Nova Scotia Before and After Program at the school they are attending.
If my child attends the Nova Scotia Before and After Program this year, will they automatically be provided a space next year?
Providers will determine the registration process. Families should direct questions about registration to the provider for their school.
When will the program start?
The program will start as soon as providers have staff in place to deliver the programming. We recognize that some providers may need a little more time to prepare.
Providers will be in direct contact with families who have registered to advise them of a start date.
