Curriculum delivery

The Key Person ensures that:

• the instructions in nursery are clear, concise and consistent – longer instructions are broken down into smaller steps when required
• expectations of behaviour in the setting are clear and understood by the children
• routines are flexible and can be adjusted according to individual needs
• there is effective use of ICT resources and other nursery resources
• children who display appropriate behaviour are frequently noticed and praised, as appropriate to individual need
• they use praise that is specific and meaningful and is aimed at effort and learning behaviour rather than just achievement
• they give regular age-appropriate feedback to children on their learning and progress
• there are opportunities for flexible groupings and pairings and children have access to positive and aspirational role models for their play and learning
• resources are age appropriate, inclusive and relevant
• there are opportunities for children to take some responsibility within the nursery, for example, giving out resources/serving at snack time etc
