Our impact

“Our attendance is where it’s never been before and our exclusions are lower than they’ve ever been. I feel we’re much richer and stronger as a school as a consequence of nurture.”

“I truly believe that nurture has been instrumental in our success here at Norbury Manor Primary School. By creating a safe and welcoming environment for all of our students, we are able to foster a culture of learning and growth that will serve them well throughout their lives.”

“I have witnessed first-hand the transformative power of the nurturing approach in our schools.”

“Our whole school was [Boxall Profile®] assessed during Term 3 and is due to be assessed again this term. It has helped to highlight children that may have otherwise slipped under the radar regarding SEMH, and has allowed us to even more precisely track the interventions and support strategies that are being put in place for our more vulnerable pupils and to track the progress that they are making in regards to their SEMH needs”

“I genuinely think, if we hadn’t done this when we did it [implemented nurture], at least two of my [year 10/11] boys would be in prison now.”

“Nurture is going nowhere; this is what we do, and we are all reaping the rewards from that.”

“A child who has experienced previous trauma and had no preschool experience is now accessing school full time…They are now engaging with their class and their social and emotional skills have developed well. They have built strong relationships with key adults”
