From the Norton Pre-School
Norton Preschool is a small, familial-focused environment.
We provide care for up to 20 "pre-schoolers" and four under 2-year-olds, ensuring that each child receives the greatest possible individual attention.
With the addition of the new "sleep room," we are now able to provide care for young children while keeping our open-concept space safe for all age groups.
In September 2018 when we had our most recent Ofsted inspection, we received a Good rating.
Parents are more than welcome to read the whole report regarding the excellent care we provide for the kids. (Link on the page for Ofsted). The national Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum is what we adhere to, which sounds quite official.
A web-based programme called Tapestry, which is accessible to families online so you can routinely monitor how your child is developing, is used to evaluate your child's progress throughout the year.
We also host parent-teacher conferences and other gatherings so you may participate in our pre-school community.
In order to convey what we have been up to throughout the day, we also add a daily blog.
We think that all of our kids' personal growth depends on their learning social skills.
To make sure the kids get off to the greatest start possible in their educational journey, we work closely with the parents.
The kids can play within our brand-new facility or outside in our safe garden, and they can switch between the two whenever they wish.
Childhood is vital in and of itself, and we want all of our children to enjoy and find fulfilment in it.
With our assistance, inspiration, and support, we hope to ease their transition into primary school and prepare them with strong foundations on which to build their future success.
