The Results of our Survey (24.03.21)
The results for each question are shown in the table. The score and colour shows the overall balance of attitudes towards each question by assigning points to each answer. There were a total of 40 responses to the survey (out of a 100 people) which is actually a really good response rate. Thank you for engaging with this exercise, we will run it again in a few weeks to see how attitudes are changing. I have shown the total results and then broken this down into Parents/Carers and Staff responses - the split in attitudes is very similar for both. Underneath the table you will find a brief analysis of the answers to each question that we will be using in our ongoing discussions. This is then followed by most of the comments made. I did have to edit some of these slightly as there were some comments made which may have caused some upset to other members of the community which we wouldn't want at all. It is really good to have some child voice in the comments, I think we have a duty to give these views in particular our full attention.

“I think Greenway Nursery is a safe environment”
A strongly positive response towards this statement, showing that both parents/carers and staff have confidence in the safety measures at the nursery. Nobody in the community feels that the nursery is unsafe, which is backed up by the fact that no families are electing to keep their child at home at this time.
“The current ‘Well Child Only’ policy is well enforced”
A fairly positive response, but far less so than to other questions, showing that this is an area that needs some work. 2 families and 1 member of staff disagree and several of each have a neutral view. Our discussions will centre around whether this should be more ‘pragmatically’ or more ‘strictly’ enforced in order to improve. Whatever the decisions are around this we will aim to be consistent so at the least everyone knows where they stand.
“The current 'Well Child Only' policy is effective in reducing the risk of Coronavirus in the setting”
A strongly positive response towards this statement, showing that this measure does give families and staff confidence, presumably feeding into the first statement regarding the safety of the environment. 1 member of staff and one parent/carer feel that the measure does not reduce the risk of Coronavirus in the setting. There are some strong representations for this in the comments.
“The current 'Well Child Only' policy is necessary”
A strongly positive response to this question, but more polarised views. Whilst all staff feel it is necessary, 4 parents either disagree or strongly disagree. It is reasonable to draw from this (evidenced by the comments) that this is due to the lower risk of Coronavirus generally going forwards into the summer.
“The current 'Well Child Only' policy makes my life difficult”
A fairly negative response shows that generally the policy does not make life difficult for most. However, the answers here are highly varied and there is clearly a significant minority who are experiencing serious difficulties from a childcare perspective, such as a teacher being called out of class to collect her child. This is borne out both in the comments and in personal emails which we have received on the topic. Several staff members find the policy very difficult indeed, particularly where there is an element of confrontation, which may feed into the less positive attitude towards our enforcing the ‘Well Child Only’ policy.
“On balance, I think the current 'Well Child Only' policy is bad for the children”
A strongly negative response to this shows that the general opinion is that the benefits of the policy outweigh any disadvantages for the child. A total of 2 parent/carer either agreed or strongly agreed with the statement suggesting that there are some children who have been significantly adversely affected by the policy. Negating these effects will be central to our ongoing discussions about our Coronavirus response. Whilst we had clear data to guide our decisions around easing the bubble arrangements back in January, this measure will continue to be guided by anecdotal evidence so we really do welcome your feedback.
“The nursery should take whatever measures they deem necessary to ensure the safety of the children and staff”
A strongly positive response to this suggests broad support for our going beyond the government guidance to ensure the safety of the community. One member of staff and one parent/carer disagreed, indicating that they would prefer us to stick to the letter of the government guidance.
“I have confidence in the decisions made about the nursery”
A strongly positive response from both parents/carer and staff. This shows us that our leadership so far has been well received and that we continue to enjoy the support of the community. This is very reassuring for us personally at a time of significant uncertainty as we continue to steer a very fine line between our careful, Covid-Secure approach and the flexibility and convenience that we have always prided ourselves on.
“I would like to see all additional measures lifted as soon as it is legal to do so”
A polarised response from both parents/carers and staff without any clear direction. This suggests that whether we act to ease our measures as the restrictions are lifted or not, there will be those who are unhappy with the decision. What we can promise is that whenever we make a change to the measures, our actions will be carefully considered with a clear scientific basis. We will also re-issue this survey frequently to track how attitudes are changing.
“GNRC communicates Coronavirus information effectively”
A strongly positive response shows that our communications have been effective so far. Feedback was very positive whilst we were maintaining a regular blog to track the Coronavirus infection rates in Horsham, focussing on the 0-4 years age range. We will continue to make full use of email and the website as we move forward into the Summer.

Comments in favour of ending the Well Child Only policy.
We are of course supportive in keeping everybody safe and have kept our child away from the setting for them to be 100% well however as both our work returns to office settings it will make it a lot harder to accommodate every runny nose when we will no longer be working from home and we could risk our job security. – Parent/Carer View
I think the well child policy is good to minimise the spread of germs during this pandemic. But should be lifted during the summer months when the weather is warmer. – Parent/Carer View
I think that any of the three covid symptoms in children should mean they can't attend, but a cold which just shows itself as a snotty nose is almost impossible to prevent and puts parents in a very tough position with their work commitments if children are well enough to go to nursery but have a runny nose, so can't. It's tricky and I understand the abundance of caution. – Parent/Carer View
The Well Child Only Policy isn't well enforced as my child came home with a cold after only being back at nursery for a few days. There also seems to be conflicting information as nursery children have to be 100% well before attending however an email that was issued September 2020 for children in wrap around care stated "Generally speaking, if your child is well enough to attend school without raising any eyebrows, then we are fine to provide wrap around care. Where nursery children's runny noses are a problem, a primary aged child with a slight cold shouldn't cause too many difficulties". It only takes one person/child to not wash their hands and spread germs throughout wrap around care and nursery. The current guidelines state anyone with a new continous cough, high temperature or loss of taste or smell should self isolate so why shouldn't my child attend nursery if they are not showing any of those symptoms but maybe have a bit of a snotty nose? Children and some adults pick up colds all the time and no policy is going to prevent germs from being bought into the nursery. – Parent/Carer View
I would just like to put across that obviously CHILD is a child who suffers with symptoms due to astma that can resemble coronavirus and i for have noticed alot of time CHILD has had off due to a cough or sniffle i ofcourse appreciate your great work. And also the measures you are taking i agree to an extent although CHILD suffers and some other children do and will suffer in the up comjng months due to astma and hay-fever and so on – Parent/Carer View
My work are flexible and I can work with my child at home, although not everyone will be so fortunate. – Parent/Carer View
I think the nursery should do what they feel is best for the safety of everyone, yet have wondered at what point a runny nose will be allowed back! – Parent/Carer View
I think as long as people can show that they have a negative covid test when they have a cough the children should be allowed to return to play school. At this age children seem have an endless snotty nose so that is a lot of time for them to miss and especially when they are due to start school in September! – Parent/Carer View
I don't want to be off play school. It's fun' - Child Voice
It's a little worrying approaching some parents, and sometimes difficult knowing when a child should be sent home or not. - Staff View
Some of the children who attend the setting are constantly snotty and cheery and I feel as though this calls for difficult decisions when staff know that child and their history. - Staff View
I am on board with it for the safety of the staff and children however I do feel 'because of COVID' can become used without good reason and that seems like an excuse not to give good care to me. - Staff View
The well child policy is important, of course we don't want children in who have fevers or stomach upsets and so on, however some children have a near permanent cough and runny nose so they should not be excluded for this. - Staff View

Comments in favour of keeping the Well Child Only policy
I do agree with the well child only policy and would absolutely keep him home should he become unwell .. however it's not the first time in the past few months that he has come home with a cold .. which he has caught from Someone at nursery .. completely not blaming anyone but it's clear some parents aren't being that considerate – Parent/Carer View
My child is too young to understand, but loves nursery and I'd rather he keeps going and the stay well policy is kept in place, than someone contracting COVID and it all being shut down. – Parent/Carer View
I think the policy on illness works, if you have no cases in any of your nurseries then that just shows that you are doing the right thing. – Parent/Carer View
My daughter is currently off with a cold, it's inconvenient as I'm working but I work from home so I can make it work and is a necessary measure. – Parent/Carer View
My daughter loves preschool and is upset she can't attend, but understands she can't go because it will cause others to get ill. – Parent/Carer View
Cannot see a reason for children attending nursery when sick other than to enable parents to get to work - which does not seem quite right either. – Parent/Carer View
Prefer the idea of reducing infections by staying home when sick. In long run all children then benefit by being healthier. – Parent/Carer View
Although the well child policy can be tricky when working, when they are not technically ill ie have a runny nose etc, it is necessary during these times. We all have to make the effort to keep everyone safe. Once all staff have received their vaccines and are protected I'm sure this could be eased. I'm certainly grateful to have not had to stress about colds, flu and other bugs during this time and whether it could be covid or not. I don't think the kids have ever gone so long without a cold! – Parent/Carer View
"Children that are sick shouldn't come to nursery coz they are poorly, they should stay at home or go to hospital. It's not nice when they sneeze on you coz it will spread germs, it's gross. I'll stay home if I'm so so sick coz you can't go to nursery; that's okay." - Child Voice
CHILD understands that the corona virus is bad and that she shouldn't go to school if she has a cold etc as she might make others ill. - Child Voice
I understand the need for the well child policy, and it hasn't as yet affected me as my child is generally well. – Parent/Carer View
I also wouldn't be keen to have to get my child another covid test after he had to have one previously due to a temperature a while ago, it was a horrid experience. So would be frustrated if he had a cold which was passed from another. – Parent/Carer View
My child kinda understand the basics about covid, and feel uncomfortable to be around people who coughs or have sniffles. He actually asked me the other day, when we were waiting in queue to drop off and one girl was constantly coughing, why is she coming to nursery, when she's ill, which made the wait quite awkward for me - Child Voice
He understands why some days he has to stay at home, if he has runny nose, but struggle to understand, why other children still come in, even with cold. He doesn't understand why one rule apply to him, but not to the others. - Child Voice
We are extremely grateful for the policy to be in place, and I was actually tempted to email and ask, how can we help, to make sure that this policy stays in place. As I personally witnessed, when child had to be send home, and seen how badly was the teacher treated by the parent. I felt really sorry for the teacher, as they are doing their best, and it's not fair for them to receive this anger from some parents, when they only follow the policy. Covid or not, unwell child just simply doesn't belong to nursery, and has to stay at home. It's not fair to the other parents, if one parent can bring in child with cold, as that child will obviously spread it to the other kids, and now 10 parents has poorly kids, thanks to this one parent. It doesn't matter if it's not covid, and they have negative test, if the child is not well, it's not ok to bring him/her in. Thank you for everything you're doing, thanks to this policy and the measures you have in place, because thanks to this all, we felt safe to send our child to the nursery, even when the numbers were really high. – Parent/Carer View
I think this is a proportionate approach. It also helps mitigate the risk to parents or carers who could become more severely unwell from a child if they brought the infection home with them. Better safe than sorry is my preferred approach even if it does mean inconvenience. – Parent/Carer View
The Well Child policy at first seemed a little extreme but having a child who is currently not at nursery as she is full of cold, I can see she has had time to recover fully while not being subject to more germs while at nursery. I also know I do not need to worry about covid being an issue for her at nursery as you are all being so careful. It's peace of mind for me and I know I am just glad she can still come to nursery at all after the last year of lockdown. – Parent/Carer View
I think your policies are logical and well thought out. I would prefer you to be cautious about lifting any policies - as we have seen the government advice has had varying degrees of success throughout the last year. – Parent/Carer View
We are happy with 'well child only' policy at the moment at your nursery and feel safe. Thank you for your hard work – Parent/Carer View
The Well children policy is vital to minimize Corona virus risk as well as other illnesses. We trust the nursery is doing their best to ensure children, staff and parents are safe. – Parent/Carer View
The fact that our child has been healthy and never had to isolate so far speaks volumes on how well the policies are working. You are never going to make everyone happy. Safety first!

Although my son is sad when kept home even with a negative test, we always think how we would feel if other children would cough around him. Keeping safe is hard, frustrating some times but best decision for all community. You don't want to be the "smart" guy that made sick all nursery! – Parent/Carer View
I do agree that children with any form of cough shouldn't be in the setting as I wouldn't want to make the assumption which child coughed without being sure, or assuming it's the child with a negative covid result. - Staff View
Going forward from corona virus, I think the setting is much cleaner and 'germ free' as of late and some policies should stay in place, such as cleaning and 'turning away' visibly poorly children. - Staff View
We have vulnerable staff and members of our own families who are vulnerable - Staff View
We have stayed open throughout this because we have been told to, measures that we put in place are there for a very big reason. So going back letting unwell children in the setting will make a lot of staff members uneasy and feel like that it's an unsafe place to work, especially as the majority of us haven't been vaccinated. - Staff View
