The older children are given a daily record sheet with brief information about the childrens day. Each child has a learning journal which parents are encouraged to read and use at any time.

Staff will also happily discuss the child's day at pick up times.

Parents are invited to attend regular "parents evenings" to discuss their child's progress.

All our Nurseries operate an open door policy.

Managing Children's Behaviour

Toad Hall Nursery uses a number of strategies to manage children's behaviour according to the child's individual needs and specific requirements. Parents are fully involved in any management plan and staff will not implement any changes without prior consultation unless in an emergency situation where health and safety is at risk.
