​
Our learning experiences are designed to meet the needs of all the children. An on-going record and assessment of your child’s progress is created and this is available for you to see and discuss with Nursery staff. We use Tapestry an online Learning Journey system to record your child’s progress and share this information with parents instantly. We encourage parents to add details of their child’s experiences and progress from outside Nursery to help keep these development records accurate.
​
All children are assigned a ‘key person’, whom is responsible for the child’s care and development ensuring that the child is happy and settled in the nursery. The ‘key person’ will also be serving as the family’s first point of contact with the nursery.
