WELCOME
We are very excited to share with you our plans for Small Steps Pre-School.
We are opening a new pre-school for children aged 2-4 years old on North Kidlington Primary School site. ​
The Pre-School is currently awaiting Ofsted registration so we are unsure of when it will open. We are hoping Autumn term 2024.
Pre-School Information
Small Steps Pre-School will offer all the same learning and play opportunities that Small Steps Day Nursery offers, but on the site of North Kidlington Primary School. We will have the added extra of being on a school site and working in partnership with them.
​
-
Hours – preschool will be open from 8:00am – 5:45pm (with handover time up until 6pm)
-
We will have both term time and all year-round spaces. You will need to tell us which type of place you would like and will only be able to change in September, January, or April, due to the funding claim periods. Changes will be subject to ratios and staffing numbers and cannot be guaranteed.
-
Meals – Small Steps Pre-school will offer breakfast, snacks, and teatime meals. We will require you to provide a packed lunch.
-
Key Person System – Small Steps Pre-school will use the key person system to aid attachments and provide a secure learning environment.
-
Nursery Story App – We will use the Nursery Story App to provide you with details of your child’s activities at pre-school.
-
Activities and outings into the community – the preschool will take advantage of the community facilities we have in Kidlington. We will be taking the children on visits to the library and park and continue our partnership with Mini Professional Dance Academy.
