The Nursery School educates 150 children aged 3 to 4 years old and 32 children aged 2 years old.Health professionals regard the teachers and support staff as having special skills and expertise in assisting children with special educational needs and disabilities.A high number of qualified and experienced early years teachers and early years practitioners can be found in any Local Authority Funded Maintained Nursery School; continuing professional development is given a high priority, with a specific focus on educating our youngest children and working in partnership with their families.Children are placed in one of six classrooms – Orange, Green, Yellow, Blue, Purple, and Red – where they are taught by a qualified teacher with the assistance of Early Years Practitioners and Early Years Support Workers.There are places for children aged 2 to 3 years old who are eligible for the government's free fifteen-hour education in the Purple Room and Red Room; there are also some paid Daycare spots for working parents and careers.The other four Nursery Classes have spots available for the government's free fifteen and thirty-hour education programs.All of the classrooms have access to our garden, allowing children to learn in both the indoor and outdoor environments.
