Scotland's first internet nursery

Wednesday, June 25, 2003

Scotland's first internet nursery has gained the Investors in People award for its commitment to staff training and development. Technotots Nursery in Dundee installed webcams last year to allow parents to watch their children 'live' online. It completed requirements for the national quality standard in only six months, ahead of the average length of assessment time of 18 months. Nursery manager Angela McGoldrick said, 'Investors in People is an excellent way of raising standards within individual organisations. Promoting and sharing of best practice in a comparable, open and honest communication forum across the industry could have a similar effect in raising standards, and thus the status of the industry.'
