Parental/Carer feedback January '22
Parent and Carer Partnership
"The input from our parents/carers is an important part of how we approach educational child development.
We want to work with you to ensure that your child gets the very best chances in life. The ages from 2-5 are the most important developmental stages of a persons life - we want to make sure we do our best to get it right.
We do this by working alongside you because a child is learning all the time.
To support our community and in line with our Vision, we do our best to support parents/carers wanting to get back into work, vulnerable children under social services, children in no educational setting and those in low income households therefore, these are given priority and our upmost support."
