Within Bright Star we offer a tailored curriculum to plan an effective learning environment, as we believe children learn more effectively if they are actively involved in their own learning experiences. Staff become partners with children, encouraging a problem solving approach to their learning.
Bright Star Nursery is committed to equal opportunities in the delivery of its services. We understand and welcome the fact that our society consists of many diverse groups and individuals and that this is an asset to our community. We believe that, as providers of childcare, we have a responsibility to actively oppose any form of discrimination and encourage positive relationships and attitudes. We encourage an ethos of inclusivity and tolerance where everyone is valued. All staff at Bright Star Nursery believe in valuing and celebrating the diversity within our setting and community. We aim to develop good practice and positive attitudes, and encourage an anti-discriminatory approach where children and adults have equal opportunities to learn develop and grow with mutual respect.
Personal, Social and Emotional Development
Within Bright Star we strongly believe that children develop and learn more effectively if they are happy, settled, build genuine relationships with others and staff and are actively encouraged to learn. This is why we focus on your child’s personal and social and emotional development from the onset. This is achieved by key people, who will help and support your child to settle. Build relationships with you are your child and plan individual learning for them.
As with PSED will believe that building your child’s physical development is vitally important. Staff offer opportunities to develop fine and large motor skills through a variety of different activities and resources, for example, malleable materials to encourage fine motor development and obstacle courses to develop large motor skills.
In addition, we offer Forest School experiences to all children. We visit the local woods to build dens, have mini beast hunts, collect natural resources, devise tight rope walks for the older children and use hills to roll down. This offers children opportunities to learn outside the classroom, in an environment that actively encourages physical opportunities.

Early Years Foundation Stage
What is the EYFS Framework – why do we have one?
“The EYFS Framework exists to support all professionals working in the EYFS to help your child, and was developed with a number of early years’ experts and parents.
In 2012 the framework was revised to make it clearer and easier to use, with more focus on the things that matter most. This new framework also has a greater emphasis on your role in helping your child develop.” (Development matters EYFS Framework)
Your child’s education and welfare are our main priorities
