We would like to wish you a warm welcome to The Learning Zone Nursery

The Learning Zone Nursery is a welcoming and happy nursery where everyone is valued and respected. Our staff place great emphasis on personal, social, and emotional development by promoting caring attitudes, thoughtfulness, mutual respect, self-discipline and self-confidence. We aim to develop each child as an individual, nurturing their strengths and talents.

Parents and carers play a very important part of nursery life, and we value strong partnership with them. We encourage our parents to become involved in all aspects of nursery life, so that, as partners, we can promote high standards of learning, behaviour and attitudes to enable every child to reach their full potential.

We believe The Learning Zone is a nursery to be proud of, a place where children learn and enjoy doing so.

Operation Encompass
It is a charitable organisation that The Learning Zone have signed up to, it was created in 2010, which has since enabled effective interventions to many thousands of children who've experienced domestic abuse.  Operation Encompass is the notification to Nurseries/schools, prior to the start of the next school day, of incidents where a child or young person has experienced or been exposed to any domestic abuse. Operation Encompass will ensure that a member of the Nursery staff, (DSL) known as a Key Adult, is trained to allow them to liaise with the police and to use the information that has been shared in confidence. They will also ensure that the nursery is able to make provision for possible difficulties experienced by children, or their families, who have experienced a domestic abuse incident. We are keen to offer the best support possible to all the children and we believe this will be extremely beneficial for all those involved. For further information, please take a look at their website using this link: www.operationencompass.org/   
‍All staff have completed the online training. The training updates staff members' knowledge of domestic abuse, children as victims of domestic abuse, how Operation Encompass works in principle and how staffcan support children experiencing domestic abuse.
