Preschool policies
Please find below a list of our policies, which help to ensure the smooth and safe running of preschool. Our policies are regularly reviewed. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact a member of staff who will be able to help. In order to be COVID-secure St Mary’s Preschool introduced a new operating policy in June 2020. This is under continual review to reflect the changing national guidelines. This policy supersedes some aspects of our other policies at the current time.
