We asked our parents to post feedback that they thought would be useful for new families.  This page shows some of their messages...

 

...and this framed poster was a present from the parents of 2014/15...

 

"I have 3 boys, the older 2 of whom attended SPS between 2014-17 and the youngest starting this year.  SPS is a special place.  Each and everyone of the staff are kind, caring and excellent at what they do, and since Sarah has been in charge, SPS has gone from strength to strength.  It is rare to find somewhere that has the balance between professionalism and being personal, but the staff at SPS have got it just right.  I can honestly say my boys have enjoyed every single day of their time at SPS.

The outdoor space is great and the teachers take great care in investing money and time in excellent outdoor resources, which I feel is important.  The  staff at SPS also work hard to keep parents well informed and up to date on their child's development, and key workers are always on hand to talk through any concerns you might have.  My children still talk about their key workers all the time!  The low turnover of staff speaks volumes for the dedication and commitment of the staff, who always seem genuinely happy to be there.

I would highly recommend SPS for anyone looking for a nurturing, stimulating and welcoming environment for their little ones."

"My son only had one year at Shepperton Pre-School, I really wish he could have had longer there!  The staff are friendly and welcoming for all the children and parents and the management is fantastic.  There is nowhere else I would have wanted my child to go."

"We are incredibly blessed that both our sons have attended Shepperton Pre-School.  As soon as you enter the pre-school each day you are greeted by such friendly, engaging and nurturing educators.  They take the time to know each child and their families so that everyone is comfortable; the children and the parents!  Through the staff's guidance and structured activities we have watched the confidence grow and important social skills develop in our children that they will need, in particular, as they progress through schooling life.

Sps creates a wonderful community spirit and we couldn't speak more highly of this wonderful school"

"I initially chose Shepperton Pre-School for its good reputation and I was not disappointed.  I loved the way that the staff treat the children as individuals, this was important to my as my son suffers with seperation anxiety and they really helped him to feel comfortable and worked with us both until he was happy to walk in without me. The pre-school promotes independance whilst supporting the children, ensuring they are ready when the time comes to start primary school and as a parent I always felt that the staff were approachable and supportive.  I would happily recommend SPS and my son has fond memories of his time spent there.

" Shepperton preschool has been a wonderful place for my son to begin his academic journey. He is confident, kind and polite. He understands social behaviours and has learned how to make friends. He has the skills to move onto the next stage of his school life and I have every belief that he will be fine at primary school. The staff at SPS are the warmest, friendliest and most enthusiastic teachers I have ever come across. They are so smiley, so kind and so loving that I never felt anxious about my son being there. We shall miss SPS very much"

"Shepperton Preschool has made my son a more confident well-adjusted four-year-old. The teachers and staff have made his learning environment a comfortable and fun place to be. I couldn’t thank them enough for the support they provided even though my son's first language was not English. I would recommend Shepperton preschool to anyone looking for a quality preschool for their child."

My son spent two years at Shepperton preschool. He was two and a half when he started, only just out of nappies and very much a toddler. By the time he left he was a chatty, independent, (slightly cheeky) little boy with a love of learning. Above all he was 'ready for school'. I don't just mean in the academic sense but in terms of his ability to listen, take turns and socialise with his peers. He had such a happy time at SPS and genuinely loved every member of staff. He was well supported in developing his independence and felt like he belonged and was part of a team. SPS provided him with important foundations for his future learning journey. A great Pre School!

Our son attended Shepperton Pre School for 2.5yrs and we couldn’t have wished for a better start for him. From day one the support we received to get him settled into pre-school far outreached my expectations. The ladies that work in this setting truly enjoy their work and love the children. My son struggled with confidence issues and also speech and both were picked up by his key worker and developed amazingly in his time at the school. I cannot recommend Shepperton Pre School enough … the team make it a truly exceptional start for your children.

"Sending our daughter to SPS has been a fantastic decision. She has been nurtured by the very accomplished staff into a confident, happy and contented little girl and we are comfortable that she is aptly prepared for primary school. This is something that we were most conscious of ensuring she achieved, and thankfully SPS was the right environment for her to do that. Many thanks to all the staff"

"We specifically chose Shepperton preschool because of it's reputation ... and it's focus on encouraging independence and developing social skills. We particularly like the focus on choice, learning consequences and fostering self directed learning and play. We feel the encouragement and support that our daughter has had since she has been with you has really enhanced her development and we are very grateful to you for what you provide."

 "We recently moved from Kent to Shepperton and were a little concerned how our son would take to his new preschool before he started. From day one at SPS he was made to feel very welcome by all the teachers and they continue to show that they really care about him. The environment is excellent with a good indoor space for play as well as a lovely garden which they can use all year round. One year on and our son is very happy there and we are so pleased we chose SPS."

 "Our son loves every day at SPS and has done right from day one! I knew it was the right choice for him from the minute I walked through the door; a mini school environment, that gives children a great grounding in exploration and learning about the world around them."
