Blueberry Nursery School, Hove, East Sussex

1 min read Early Years
What happens at Blueberry? The nursery places a lot of importance on staff qualifications and responsibilities. Everyone who works at Blueberry Nursery is qualified to at least NVQ level 3 standard, with some on level 4 and 5

There are also two staff members with early years professional status and three qualified teachers. The philosophy of the nursery is that every staff member is accountable.

How does the philosophy work in practice? The nursery is broken up into separate rooms for children of different ages, and for each room there is a line manager responsible for budgeting what is required for that room. The staff are not only responsible for purchasing any required resources for their rooms, but are also expected to be self-managed - making changes when they are required and contributing new ideas and strategies to improve the setting.
