Hillhead EYC is situated in the grounds of Hillhead Primary School. The centre is registered with the Care Inspectorate to provide early learning and childcare for a maximum of 109 children aged from birth to those in their pre-school year. It is open from 8 am-6 pm and children attend over a variety of attendance patterns.
The ELC consists of a number of rooms and spaces, which includes extensive outdoor space. There is a large team of full and part time staff, who work over a number of shift patterns in order to deliver 1140 hours.
Children access a range of high quality indoor and outdoor spaces, including three indoor playrooms, two large outdoor play areas and an enclosed outdoor garden. All spaces are well planned to inspire curiosity, imaginative play and creativity.
The EYC is overseen by the Head Teacher of the primary school, who works closely with the Early Years Team. The Depute Head of Centre leads and manages the centre on a day-to day-basis and is very well supported by two Senior Early Years Workers and the wider team.
