FAQ's

Extended hours funding, also known as 30-hour funding has been put in place by the government to support working families in England. Funded Childcare Providers must deliver Early Education and Childcare as set out in the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. This applies whether the child attends 15 or 30 hours.
Working families are entitled to 30 hours per week, up to a maximum of 38 weeks per year. Parents can choose to stretch this funding over more than 38 weeks of the year where this meets their childcare needs.

No. It is the parents’ choice whether they wish to access all of their funded hour’s entitlement, which is a maximum of 30 hours across 38 weeks.

Failure to reconfirm your code, will place you in a ‘grace period.’ This means that your child will not be entitled to extended hours funding once the grace period ends.

Health and Safety Policy Statement

The following is a statement of the Nursery‘s health and safety policy in accordance with Section 2 of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974
Read health & safety policy

Food & Nutrition

We provide healthy nutritious food throughout the day and we encourage children to try new foods. We are actively celebrating healthy, wholesome approaches to eating as well as raising awareness of diversity. Our suppliers Cupcakes Caterers deliver children’s dinners fresh on a day to day basis, providing a wide variety of locally sourced foods, including fruit and vegetables.

Cupcake caterers has 5-Star inspected kitchens, procedures, documentation and disclosure of ingredients, which are all designed to ensure food safety.

‘Catering for children with allergies, intolerances and religious needs, is handled extremely sympathetically at Cupcakes Catering’. This ensures that your child’s individual needs are met and are handled respectfully.

We train all our nursery staff to qualify to level 2 in food safety which is regularly updated. We train all of our staff to maintain the highest standards of food safety and hygiene. This reflects in our excellent EHO 5-star rating.

This 5-star Excellent rating is given by Environmental Health Officers (EHOs) employed by the Council who decide the score / star rating of each food business following a planned food hygiene inspection. Inspections take place between every 6 months to 2 years.

Special Educational Needs & Disabilities

We have an embedded system to ensure that a key person is allocated to every child. This key person completes regularly observations that are then used to inform the child’s planning around their individual needs and interests. These include interests from home and interests at nursery. The key person completes assessments on every child to identify any support that may be required. These assessments are shared with the parents who are encouraged to add their comments.

When a child initially starts with us, we provide a ‘stay and play session where the child can familiarise themselves with the new surroundings and their key person can identify the child’s individual needs, interests and abilities. This is the initial opportunity for the parents to identify any needs with the key person so that these can be catered for.

When your child first joins the setting we encourage you to dicuss any areas of concern with us at the earliest opportunity. We would identify children with special educational needs through observation and children’s assessments using the Early Years Foundation Stage as a guide. The staff are trained to be able to identify where children may need some support. If you have any concerns you can raise these concerns and get advice from the key person, Manager and the SENCO.

Transitions are a key time for any child. The key person ensures that these transitions are well planned and supported.

When a child first starts at the nursery the key person will work with the parent to develop appropriate times for the child to settle into the nursery at their own pace.

When a child transitions to another room throughout their time at Roots and Shoots, the key person works with the new key person to relay and hand over relevant information for that child.

The new key person will ensure that the child’s interests and needs are catered for and that the child is well adjusted to their new room and children.

When a child is ready to transition to School the new teachers will be informed through the key person of all relevant transition supporting documents are completed and conveyed to the School to ensure a smooth transition takes place for all children
