Parental Involvement

Parents are the first educators of their young children. The aim of the nursery is to support their essential work, not to supplant them. We will:

• make all new parents aware of the nursery's policies and procedures
  
• encourage parents on an individual basis to play an active part in the nursery
  
• ensure that the parents are informed on a regular basis about their child's progress
  
• ensure that all parents have opportunities to contribute from their own skills, knowledge and interests to the activities of the nursery
  
• involve parents in shared record keeping about their own child, either formally or informally
  
• welcome the contributions of parents, whatever form these may take
  
• make known to all parents the systems for registering queries, complaints or suggestions
  
• provide opportunities for parents to learn about the nursery curriculum and about young children's learning, in nursery and at home
  
• keep parents informed about "the nursery goings on" in the form of a regular newsletter and by having a parents' notice board
