A desire to continually improve the wellbeing of children, staff and parents has led the Old School House Nursery in Cambridgeshire to link with early years settings in Norway and develop a project around Non Violent Communication (NVC).
NVC - or 'compassionate communication' - is a model of communication developed by Marshall Rosenberg, founder of the Center for NVC in the United States, which has been taken up worldwide in nurseries, schools and hospitals and many other settings to support relationship-based work. Benefits it can deliver include fewer conflicts, increased skill in mediating conflicts, greater happiness among children in their setting, more listening to each other and more engaged learning.
