The Playgroup Team
With eight members of staff we can offer a high ratio of adults to children, which enables us to provide stimulating activities in all areas of the curriculum and work in small groups and on a one-to-one basis where appropriate. The staff work as a team, with each member (listed below), having the responsibility for a specific area to ensure the efficient day-to-day running of the Playgroup. We have a designated SENCO, Health and Safety/Hygiene Officer, Child Protection and Behavioural Management Advisors. With all full time members of staff having First Aid Certificates, the Playgroup has First Aid cover at all times.
