Colleagues were kind and amicable.

Felt severely underpaid and undervalued. Management team didn't know how to run the nursery, message was not clear about daily life of the workplace.

Pros

It was a very busy nursery. It is good for those who started with less experience to fully immerse into a busy school and gain fundamental skills working in a nursery.

Cons

Staff turnover rates were quite high, so there were a lot of bank staff and agency workers. There were a lot of children in not quite a big space. There was no non-contact time for the teachers to do their observations and daily updates.

Pros

The approach has changed a lot in the past year. The management team is being supportive and hands on with their employees. Curriculum is more enriched with extra activities and provides interactive lessons to the children delivered by activity providers like Lucy Sparkles. The teams are more settled and happier. We get non contact time to complete the observations and other paper work which is very helpful. Staff benefits have also improved and we get staff of the month awards, extra day of leave on birthday and for year of service. The management recognizes employees impact and takes into account their views when making new changes and implementing new strategies. Children go to different places on outings for instance to the museum or local galleries. The nursery also operates with float staff which is great as it gives extra pair of hands where needed.

Cons

We get a lot of training opportunities and usually they are on Saturday it would be great to get it on the weekday rather than weekends.
