'Every child deserves the best possible start in life and the support that enables them to fulfil their potential…to make the most of their abilities and talents as they grow up.’  

(Statutory Framework for Early Years Foundation Stage, 2012)

 

Our vision for each child is that throughout their time at pre-school they will be surrounded by opportunities to have fun and learn through their play, helping them to grow, develop, and reach their potential within a safe and caring environment. 

 

To achieve this vision we:

• Treat all children as individual and unique, recognising that they are constantly learning and developing at their rate and in their own style.

 

• Work collectively with all members of the pre-school community to ensure that the safety and well-being of all children is paramount.

 

• Accept and respect all children and their families whatever their ability, educational needs, family background and religious or cultural background. 

 

• Work closely with the parents/carers of each child to understand their needs, interests and relevant aspects of their background and to share information about the child’s development. 

 

• Help children form trusting relationships with the adults who care for them, and positive and respectful relationships with their peers.

 

• Provide a stimulating and varied environment in which children can experiment, investigate, explore and learn through active participation in all areas of the curriculum.

 

• Support all children, regardless of their abilities, to develop independence, make positive choices, and be challenged in their learning and development.
