From March 2024 - Feb 2025 we delivered 154 nursery sessions, providing early learning and childcare for 30 families, including those with children with ASN or facing other disadvantages and challenges.

All staff were subject it increased wages, just above the government requirement for ELC employees. Wild Sparks delivered professional development and training services to other local ELC providers, both on a paid basis and as part of professional partnerships between settings.
Wild Sparks stakeholders are the parents, teachers/professionals and children who use our services. We engaged them as follows: Online surveys for parents Regular consultation and group discussion work with children attending nursery sessions Full self-evaluation against Education Scotland guidance for Early Learning and childcare, in partnership with staff and stakeholders. In accordance with parent feedback we increased face to face meetings, adjusted our pick up and drop off arrangements to increase safety and convenience, advocated for additional support for children with ASN and offered parent volunteering experiences. We continue to tailor our support to include the most vulnerable families, working with partner organisations to provide holistic family support to those whose children have ASN or are facing other challenges. Children are at the heart of the nursery’s planning and development and they are actively involved in changes throughout the nursery on a daily basis.
