Ratios

 

At Dandelion we know that children deserve and need high-quality interactions.

In order to truly hear what children are saying we have excellent adult to child ratios. 

For children aged 2 we have a ratio of 1 adult to 2 children (most nurseries use the government ratios of 1 adult to 4 children!) 

 

For children aged 3+ we have a ratio of 1 adult to 6 children (most nurseries use the government ratio of 1 adult to 13 children for qualified teachers and 1 adult to 8 children for level 3 practitioners)
