Acorns Nursery School follows the Early Years’ Curriculum, and provides the best variety of experiences, learning and play activities to enable each child to fulfil their potential. Each child will have a personalised learning record, and an individual bespoke reading book.
Your child’s key worker will book an appointment with you every term to discuss their progress across the 7 areas in which they are assessed. It is very important for us to work with each child’s parents to gain a full view of each child. Children learn a lot at home, as well as at Nursery School!
We also work with a variety of other Professionals when needed – Speech Therapists, OTs etc. We look at the whole curriculum in relation to every child to make sure that they are achieving the expected progress in each area.
