Our Mission Statement
At Ickford Pre-School our aim is to provide a high quality learning environment which is affordable and accessible to all. Through caring, co-operative and respectful interactions we will foster intellectual, creative, social, emotional and physical growth and development, to inspire a lifelong desire for learning. Our aim is to nurture the whole child and encourage them to 'Learn through Play' by providing a healthy balance of child-initiated and developmentally appropriate adult-led activities, with time for the children to work individually or in different-sized groups. We will recognise the individual interests, needs and differences of each child. We believe that crucial to children's growth is a stable, safe, healthy, comfortable, fun and culturally relevant environment. All children will be valued as unique individuals and be supported by caring, experienced and qualified practitioners. Central to our ethos are the following: - The rights of children are paramount. - Children will be seen as competent and capable learners regardless of their background. - Equality, inclusion and diversity are embedded in what we do. - The role of the parents/carers should always be respected and supported. - We hold high expectations of the children, staff and service providers. |
