Thank you for taking the time to respond to our recent Parent/Carer survey.

The results are below.

100% of our responses feel our children experience warmth, caring and nurturing approaches to support their overall well being.  
100% of our responses feel our practice by staff reflects families’ personal preference and promotes children’s independence, privacy and dignity.  
95% of our responses feel that where our children require support with personal care, interactions throughout are warm, caring and nurture children’s security, confidence and positive relationships. 5% are unsure. We will continue to ensure that we discuss with parents/carers how we support children and explain how we support with personal care.  We will also send out information on our newsletter detailing our procedures.
79% of our responses are aware that fresh water is available throughout the day. We will add photos to our newsletter and to Learning Journal of the water available in the Playroom and outdoors.
42% of our responses were aware that safety and emotional security and well being are supported through sensitive arrangements for sleep routines. Information will be added to the newsletter detailing the procedures for children who require sleep.
36% strongly agree and 64% agree that children’s overall wellbeing is supported through effective use of personal planning, taking account of the wellbeing indicators.  
47% of responses felt that where medication is required that it is delivered in a safe and sensitive manner.  53% are unsure. We will ensure all Parents/Carers are aware of our medication policy and procedures.  We will do this by ensuring it is available on our website and by providing information on our newsletter.
95% of responses feel that staff work proactively with children, families and other professionals to identify next steps and strategies based on individual needs and prior learning.  5% are unsure. We will ensure we inform Parents/Carers of the agencies we work with to ensure all individual needs are met.

 

ECC Feedback from Improvement Priorities

Leave a comment

Thank you to everyone who took the time recently to complete the survey on our current Improvement Priorities.  This will enable us to identify any areas of development for the next session.

You Said: We Did:
60% responded that you were aware of our rationale.  You also felt it was of benefit to the children. We re-sent our rationale out via the APP twice and put on the blog.  It is also on display in the cloakroom area.
100% responded that they were aware of at least one important document in Early Years and 100% responded that staff were aware of all documents. We took part in an Improvement Priority Session for the ECC and School where Mrs McKillop discussed the important guidance and the National Practice with Parents/Carers.
100% responded that they were aware we have a refreshed Vision, Values and Aims and 10% responded that they were aware we attend a whole school and ECC monthly Assembly. On our dates for your diary section of the newsletter we add the Assembly date.  However, we will make it clear that this is for the ECC children joining with the school and add photos and descriptions of what happens.
100% responded that they were aware the ECC embeds the UNCRC principles (rights of the child) We will continue to embed the rights of the child and use these in our newsletters to allow Parents/Carers the opportunity to discuss these at home.
60% responded that they were aware that staff have taken part in Nurture, Trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences training. We will inform Parents/Carers via the newsletter of training that staff have been involved in.
100% responded that Learning Journals and GLOW is used as a means of communication. We will continue to use these.  With the change of the APP, we have been told verbally that the blog is becoming more useful.
