Ashmore Park Nursery Continues to Attract High Profile Attention!

Now how about this for a result! Last night at the Sandwell Labour Group Annual Dinner I had a chat with The Labour Party’s Deputy Leader Tom Watson. After exchanging pleasantries he told me that Sion Simon MEP was singing the praises of the Ashmore Park Nursery.

Phil & Tom WatsonSion had told Tom that he had recently visited the Ashmore Park Nursery and that ”it was a project that had genuinely inspired him” Tom went onto say “Sion was very complementary about the school and he has told me that I must go and see the work they are undertaking around digital learning for myself.”

The Deputy Leader of the Party is also MP for West Bromwich East, has long been a champion of all things digital: He was an early adopter of Twitter and one of the first MPs to write a blog.

So the role I have now is to arrange the visit of this very busy politician to Ashmore Park Nursery, the staff have just returned from a training visit to Stockholm in Sweden, where they along with the Swedish schools who are our partners in this digital revolution that the APN is leading, were involved in a training scheme.

It’s just great that our school and our Nursery children are getting so much national and international attention.
