Being informed:

Information about your child and how they are when you are not with them is very important. Planned activities provide you with part of the picture. Your child’s key person will provide you with details of your child’s individual progress. We will also complete a variety of formal and informal reports that we will feed back with you. This constant dialogue along with opportunities to attend developmental meetings, focusing on care and education are all part of the package we offer you. Being informed enables you and your child to make the very best of our service.
