Full text below thanks :)

Escuela de Verano, Navidad y Pascua. Cubriendo así horarios y días vacacionales para los niños/as mientras que para los padres son horarios laborales. Ofreciendo así una alternativa educativa en el ocio y una tranquilidad para sus progenitores.

an educational option during the school holidays
Explanation:
I think this is actually what it means. I guess you could use "during weeks off school", but I don't think "free time" fits at all here.

Explanation:
I think the term "ocio" (leisure) is crucial here as it's the kind of extra curricular activities children enjoy a lot. Good luck
