OUR PRACTICE

We offer good quality care and educational play with an abundance of carefully selected resources, and provide a high level of supervision. We continually evaluate and monitor our work practice and children’s development through key groups. We aim to encourage positive self-esteem, independence and an awareness of the rich and varied backgrounds of our children and their families. Regular links meetings with our families ensure that each child’s development in the curriculum from Birth to 3 Matters and the Foundation Stage for 3 to 5 year olds is closely monitored and evidence recorded in their Individual Profile Books. Our care and teaching plus Inspection by the Ofsted department ensures that we maintain a high level of achievement and outcomes for our children; many achieving above average at the Foundation Stage. (please see our current report on www.ofsted.com). Pre-school education is a powerful vehicle for transmitting values. Early childhood is an important time for developing social attitudes. Parents, carers and staff have a vital role to play in this process.
