When the head teacher and governors at Lander Road Primary in Bootle,
Sefton, discovered local families had no choice but to use provision
outside the local area, they were keen to provide their own
community-based service.
From the outset, the school believed it important to integrate
two-year-olds into the maintained nursery where children attend for two
five-hour days. They feel this has been a great success, and older
children are said to have benefited from the experience enormously.
Introducing two-year-olds into the nursery has supported the school to
redefine its environment. As a result of the changes, all children can
now access a range of innovative and stimulating experiences and have
the opportunity to interact with different members of staff.
