At Chapel Lane Preschool, we aim to provide a happy, safe and caring environment, free from prejudice and discrimination, for each child within our care.
Every child is unique and it is our mission to provide fun, stimulating learning experiences within an adaptable learning environment ensuring every child’s individual needs are met. Strong emphasis is placed on learning through play as we believe at this stage in a child’s development the learning process should be as interesting and enjoyable as possible.
Their learning environment changes in order to challenge and provide appropriate activities and play opportunities to develop your child’s emotional, physical, social and intellectual capabilities to their full potential. At the end of their time with us they will be resilient, capable and self-assured for their transition to reception.
We can have a maximum of 40 children per session and we provide a staffing ratio in line with the safeguarding and welfare requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage. We ensure that children have sufficient individual attention to guarantee care and education of high quality by maintaining over and above the minimum ratio of a one to eight.
Each child is allocated a member of staff as their ‘key person’. The key person builds up a strong relationship with their key chlidren and has responsibility for making observations of progress and planning for their next steps in learning.
