Behaviour Management

Children need to have set boundaries of behaviour for their own safety and the safety of their peers.

Within the nursery we aim to set boundaries in a way that helps your child to develop a sense of their own behaviour, both in their environment and the environment of those around them. Sanctions applied in the case of unacceptable behaviour must take account the age and stage of development of the child. They must be fair and consistent.

The nursery Manager will ensure that parents are fully informed about and support the actions being taken to modify a child’s unacceptable behaviour. Corporal punishment (slapping, smacking, or shaking) will never be acceptable practices and will not be used. Parents should feel free to discuss any concerns they may have with the nursery Manager. All matters will be treated in the strictest confidence.

By positively promoting good behaviour, valuing co-operation and a caring attitude we hope to ensure that children develop as responsible members of society.
