The Role of the Key Person

Every child at Hopscotch Pre-school and Nursery has a key person whose role will be to meet the needs of each child in their care.
Each key person has responsibility for monitoring your children’s learning, updating your child’s development records and helping them work towards achieving their next steps. The next steps are the curriculum ‘goals’ set out within the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and are designed to support your child to progress to the next level through play.
All this information is shared with you using our online learning journey, Evidence for Learning which allows you to log in and view your child’s special moments.
The role of the Key Person is also to build a relationship with your child giving them the reassurance to feel safe and cared for and to support them when making transitions to new experiences.
We hold three Parents evenings a year to give you the opportunity to discuss your child’s development and next steps however if you have any concerns regarding your child please do not hesitate to speak to either your child’s key person or a member of the Management team.
