Our vision is to work together in partnership to make a real and lasting difference to the lives, learning and opportunities of all young children and their families.

Each pupil at Whitegate Nursery School is entitled to:

• High quality teaching
• A supportive, nurturing ethos
• The opportunity, encouragement and expectation to learn, make progress and attain high standards reaching their full potential
• A rich, broad and balanced curriculum; personalised to individuals with high quality, first hand learning experiences
• A learning environment inside and outside that is stimulating and challenging yet safe and secure
• The opportunity to develop positive dispositions and attitudes with a readiness for lifelong learning

Our centre strives to create a collaborative family community, where each individual is valued, supported, empowered and feels they can succeed.

At Whitegate we value and support all families through our shared image of the child:

• I am curious and love to explore
• I am motivated and engaged
• I feel secure because I believe I can!
• I am willing to have a go and can persevere
• I am creative and use my imagination
• I am exploring my emotions and learning about other people
