Nurture at QB

Our nurture class here at Quarry Brae is called the Star Room. Mrs Buchanan & Mrs McManus work in the Star Room.

Nurture Groups

Nurture groups are small classes of four to six pupils who spend  the morning within the Star Room but remain part of their class group. The Star Room works with children who need extra support to help them  meet the demands of being at school, improving self-esteem and self-confidence. Children are identified for the group through discussion with their class teacher and by observing their social interactions with friends in the classroom and playground. These help us set the targets for each child. Children’s progress is regularly reviewed by Star Room staff and class teachers in co-operation with their families. Children can be integrated back into their class group when they have achieved their nurture targets.
