Stephen Perse Nurseries Salisbury Villas

The Early Years Foundation Stage implicitly incorporates the core British values of democracy, rule of law, individual liberty, respect for one another, and tolerance for people of different faiths and beliefs. These values are also actively promoted throughout daily activities in our Stephen Perse nurseries and Early Years experiences.

promoting the importance of listening to opinions and sharing ideas whether to produce a piece of art, sculpture, drawing, model or to achieve an outcome in a game.
encouraging every child to participate in group discussions and circle times.
explaining to children how something they have done might have made another child feel, instead of just asking them to say a meaningless sorry.
