Norcot Early Years Centre

Norcot Early Years Centre is a large state run children's centre for 3 - 5 years olds with 120 part-time and 30 full-time places. We also have 50 neighbourhood nursery daycare places for 0 - 5 year olds and we provide wraparound care. We are sited in Reading near the river in the Thames Valley, west of London. We are part of a mixed socio-economic and cultural community; all children attending at present are within the 0 - 5 years age group.

The centre provides a broad, balanced curriculum following the guidelines of foundation stage and birth to 3 matters. The staff work in two teams to provide workshop based provision. Each child and their family are encouraged to work in partnership with staff to build a profile as a record of their development and progress. We have a well developed Special Needs Policy and practise ensuring early identification, support, planning and evaluation. Families are closely involved and work with centre or outside professionals where needed.
