It is the responsibility of all staff to ensure consistency, gentleness and understanding in their attitude. In this way, we endeavour to influence a child's future conduct, rather than emphasising negative points in past behaviour.

In the event of a child's behaviour disrupting his / her peer group, the child would be given time away from an activity. During this interval a member of staff will chat with the child to explain what he / she has done wrong and then the child will be encouraged to modify their behaviour in order to rejoin the group.

Parents will always be informed if a child has had to be removed from a serious area of conflict. If a child's behaviour is such that all efforts to remedy their behaviour fails, a senior member of staff will discuss the situation with the child's parents to decide on future action.

All children are educated to show care and consideration for others.

Parental Involvement

KinderWorld nursery staff will always welcome parents who wish to visit their child during the day. Similarly, parents may telephone at any time during nursery opening hours and speak with the member of staff they require. Parents are assured that any information exchanged with the staff is treated confidentially, within legal constraints.

Staff will follow the parents' wishes wherever possible and take into consideration the parents' assessment of their child. Parents' evenings are provided to enable discussions relating to past and future aspects of the curriculum and to assist their child's achievements and development.

Equal Opportunities Policy

KinderWorld supports the policy of treating all children equally regardless of race, gender, religion, disability.

KinderWorld's ethos is to ensure:-

The promotion of anti-racism by encouraging children to respect traditional values other the childís own.

That every effort will be made to enable children to cope with any disabilities and join in Nursery activities.
