Tips for a Better Visit
Ask About SEN. If your child needs extra support, ask about SEN teachers, special assistants and the format of individual sessions before enrolling.
Use The App. Ask how the nursery app is used; parents report seeing daily activities, photos, videos and progress information there.
Check Ratio. When touring, ask about the classroom’s student-to-staff ratio, since one parent reported a 3:1 ratio as a useful advantage for small children.
Tour Classrooms. If your child is nearing FS2, inspect the available space and ask how reading and maths fundamentals are covered before deciding.
Ask About Updates. Confirm the communication routine at enrolment, especially whether you will receive regular activity and progress updates from the classroom.
