From the Little Acorns
The staff would like to extend a warm welcome to you and your family on our welcoming website for Brixworth Preschool.
Our OFSTED inspection of the pre-school in November 2012 gave it an exceptional rating. We have 11 staff members, 7 of whom have level 3 or above qualifications, and 1 of them has a BA with honours in early years practise and Early Years Professional Status.
We work hard to establish a secure, joyful, and safe learning environment at Little Acorns. We think that every child deserves to grow up in a joyful, secure, and safe atmosphere where they have plenty of chances to try new things. We support children's independent development at their own pace while ensuring that they interact with others in a kind and responsible manner, respecting their elders, the staff, and their environment, while also taking into account their uniqueness and allowing differences to be noticed but accepted. In our organisations, we strive for complete inclusion and equality. Our building provides a handicapped restroom and access for wheelchairs.
