Our Policies
Settling in
We would like parents to stay with children for an agreed period of time to ensure that the children become familiar with their new environment and get to know each other and the staff.
Rest Areas
Within both the nursery and the preschool there are quiet carpeted rest areas with soft cushions where children can go if they wish to rest and relax at any time of the day.
Health Policy
Precautions should be taken when caring for a group of nchildren to prevent spreading infection, e.g. hot water, hand wash, sanitizer, and paper towels are always available.
Children Collection policy
Please ensure that you collect your child on time, late collection can be very upsetting for some children. In no circumstances should a child be allowed to go home or leave the premises except in the care of a parent or person who has been named in advance by the parent of the child.
Comments & Complaints
If you have any concerns or queries about any aspect of your child’s schooling kindly speak to the class teacher. Should the class teacher be unable to resolve the concern, then this will be progressed within 5 days to the Centre Head unless a satisfactory outcome is achieved.
Behaviour Management
We believe exhibitions of challenging behaviour are natural at certain ages and stages of development, and children need to be supported through this behaviour. Parents will be advised if it is felt that further outside support is required e.g. doctor, counselor, etc. for an On-going behavioural problem.
Equal Opportunities
We welcome all children regardless of race or creed and provide a caring and professional service to all children.
