Staffing
All staff attend regular training courses as part of their professional development and are either Montessori qualified or working towards a Montessori qualification. Every member of staff holds a fist aid certificate.
We offer work experience places for students.
Due to the individual nature of the Montessori approach we have a maximum staff : child ratio of 1:5. This enables us to meet the needs of all the children.

What some people have said about us:

“Staff work extremely well together as a team. The staff demonstrate very good knowledge of the early learning goals and child development, so enabling them to meet each child’s individual needs.”
Ofsted report January 2006

“Thank you for providing such a happy nursery school”

“Having my child attending such a special school with such dedicated, loving and extraordinary staff is a big load off mum’s shoulders”
