Here at Brightside, our staff are friendly, well-trained and enthusiastic. Our children - extremely delightful! Our aim is quite simply to ensure every child has the opportunity to thrive in a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment and has the very brightest start to learning, leading to a brighter future.
We strive for all our children to become confident, respectful problem solvers who have the capability to overcome any barriers that they face and reach their full potential. To achieve this, staff work collaboratively to plan a progressive, unique curriculum that is underpinned by the teaching of basic skills, knowledge, concepts and values.
