Reflections Nursery & Forest School in Worthing is launching a research and development consultancy service to share its theory and methods with other nurseries.
As well as being a Forest School, Reflections also incorporates the Reggio Emilia approach in much of its activities and education.
Long-term project work led by the children and their imaginations is a key element of the nursery’s practice. This is facilitated by an in-house art studio and the employment of two full-time artists – the atelierista and the ateliers from the Reggio Emilia philosophy.
Director of Reflections Martin Pace said, ‘The question we are asked most often at our professional development days is, "do we offer a consultancy service to visit and support other nurseries?" People are interested in environments and materials, long-term project work and documentation, essentially in children’s ideas and how to respond to them.
