A STAFF team are celebrating a double accolade.
Walton Lane Nursery School in Nelson was recently singled out for special praise by chief inspector of schools Chris Woodhead.
Now it has been awarded the Investors in People staff training and development award.
"The IIP programme fitted in extremely well with our school development plan," said Audrey Wilson, head of the nursery which looks after 83 children.
Other East Lancashire employers to be awarded the standard are the National Autistic Society's Hyndburn Service, Lower Darwen School and Springhill Nursery of Accrington.
Walter Holland & Son, of Baxenden, and Broughton Crangrove, of Accrington, have been re-recognised under the scheme.
