Key Person Policy

At Head Start we understand that children reach their full potential by having good home nursery links. All staff in your child’s room are responsible for all the children; however, your child will also have a nominated Key Person.

Our Key Person system enables your child to relate to one special adult right from the settling in stage. Each member of staff has particular responsibility for a small group of children. Records and observations are made and individual needs are incorporated into the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum. The Key Person also maintains links with parents, sharing information on any unique needs and most importantly, your child’s achievements.
