Nursery World - Editor's view (182)

Aask any successful nursery owner the secret of their thriving business and they're almost guaranteed to say their staff team. A strong team has always been a good measure of a nursery's popularity and profitability, but it is an asset that can only be built up with the help of an effective manager. That role has become all the more challenging in recent years as Government policy continues to make fresh demands of the manager's time and expertise.

That role has become all the more challenging in recent years as Government policy continues to make fresh demands of the manager's time and expertise.

And with this in mind, we have renamed our Nursery Business supplement Nursery Management, to reflect the growing need for strong management expertise within the sector.

We'll continue to provide you with essential business information (see, for example, our state of the market report on page 4), but we also aim to keep you up to date with the latest Government policy (turn to page 17 for details of the new anti-age discrimination legislation) and provide essential advice on how to build up an excellent staff team (check out our feature on nurseries that benefited from the Investors in People).
