At South Normanton Nursery school, we are committed to high quality Early Years provision and practice. We have a simple long term goal which is for the children who have attended our setting to contribute to the community and further out into the world, throughout their lives in a positive and inspiring way. In order to achieve this goal we have clear aims and values.
Our aims and values are underpinned by the articles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of a Child. These rights, like all human rights, are unconditional and our Governors and staff are fully committed to South Normanton Nursery School's rights-based provision where rights are respected and fulfilled.
