Policies
Policies and procedures are essential to help us provide good quality provision that is compliant with the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). They do this by explaining to staff and parents about the type of childcare we offer and what actions we take in practice to achieve this. The EYFS requires providers to have written policies and procedures and to provide staff with training at induction to ensure that they fully understand, and know how to implement the policies and procedures and to ensure that they are accessible and clearly explained to parents.
The policies are available to view, and these are located in our reception area. At your request, we can email copies through to you.
