Why keeping parents in the know is essential to a childs physical and social growth

Nursery education forms the foundation of a child’s physical and social growth. Hence it is essential that one chooses a nursery for their child wisely. Nursery education also helps a child to experience, interpret and respond to the world around them via touch and social communication. Nursery education also allows for parents to dig deep and glimpse further into what their child would what to be when they grow up.

These early years of education help mould children into well-rounded individuals who communicate and respond to the world around them. Teachers in a nursery play an important role of educating children and building their self-esteem so that they can speak out and be confident by the time they reach school. Nurseries also provide an environment unlike home giving children a chance to interact with other children from different communities and from different religions. This alone gives children a chance to interact and develop their budding social skills with others and build genuine bonds of friendship right from the very beginning.

Parents also play a major role in the early learning and development of their children by taking part in nursery activities as much as they can. Keeping track of their children via the nursery is the best way they can figure out more about the likes, dislikes interests and character of their children. Since children get educated and learn to become stronger and bolder individuals with character at the nursery, it is always wise for parents to keep in touch with their teachers. Teachers spend a lot of time and continually assess children under them and recognise their talents and skills; which is why they know more about a child’s over all development and growth. This allows them to easily gauge and correct children if they fall behind or if they go wrong. Keeping parents in the know about their children helps keep children on track and helps parents understand which areas their children need to work on.

The Kensington Nursery in Dubai also understands that each child is an individual and with this in mind they conduct a personal development assessment for each child when they join the nursery in order to structure their activities appropriately. Throughout their stay children are continually monitored and their achievements recognised against a set of early learning goals. For Pre-school stage students The Kensington Nursery provides parent/teacher conferences and for all students bi–annual written reports. Parents are encouraged to seek advice and discuss any concerns they may have with regard to their child’s development, with their class teacher.
