Policies

Ascott Pre-school’s policies help us to make sure that the service we provide is of the highest quality. In this way we make certain that being a member of the pre-school is an enjoyable and beneficial experience for each child and his or her parents.

The staff and committee of the pre-school work together to adopt the policies and they have the opportunity to take part in the annual review of the policies. This review helps us to improve our service for its members and the local community.
