An Early Years Education focused Inspection (EYEI) was carried out by the Department of Education and Skills in Stepping Stones, our pre-school and after school service. During the inspection they assessed the following four areas: 1) the quality of context to support children's learning and development, 2) the quality processes to support children's learning and development, 3) the quality of children's learning experiences and achievements and 4) the quality of management and leadership for learning. The quality scale ranges from poor to excellent. We are very happy to announce that Trish and staff scored 3 very goods in areas 1-3 and an excellent in area 4 (a score of excellent is very rarely given). These fantastic results are testament to Trish and staff's hard work and dedication and we are very proud to have this facility as part of our school community. We truly believe Stepping Stones is an asset to our school and wish Trish and staff many more years of success! Congratulations and well done!
