Key Worker
Our key worker system gives each member of staff a particular responsibility for just a few children. Each child is allocated a member of staff when they begin pre-school. This staff member is responsible for record keeping, observing and ensuring that the curriculum is meeting each child's needs. Please ask a member of staff about your child's key worker if you are unsure or have any questions. A display list is kept in the porch area outlining all the children's designated key workers.
