Position: Head of Nottingham Nursery School in Radford, Nottingham
- How did you feel about being awarded a gold Go4it award?
I felt very pleased and proud. Our deputy and senior teacher, who are both forest school trained, and I went to the awards ceremony held on a boat on the River Thames in London. The award - a silver 'Oscar' - will take pride of place at the nursery.
- How did you hear about the Go4it awards?
An Ofsted inspector who does consultancy work for HTI (Heads, Teachers & Industry, a leadership organisation for educationalists), the organisers of the awards, paid us a visit and suggested we enter to become a Go4it school. It recognises schools that encourage an innovative approach to embracing challenges and opportunities, and to take risks rather than wrapping children up in cotton wool.
