They develop independence in personal care routines and are confident and sociable. Children demonstrate that they feel safe and secure, greeting staff with smiles and seeking comfort and reassurance when needed. Inspector highlights - Children behave well and staff establish familiar, consistent routines, which support children to feel secure and confident. - Staff have realistic, age-appropriate expectations of children's behaviour and use positive praise and encouragement effectively. - Staff are kind, caring and attentive to meeting children's individual needs. Children develop close and trusting relationships with their key persons. - Leaders are proactive in monitoring children's attendance and follow up unexplained absences to check on children's welfare. - Staff support children to develop independence in their personal care routines, including toileting. - Staff work effectively with other professionals and external agencies to support children's development and progress, particularly for those with additional needs. Areas to develop - 1 Curriculum is not consistently well organised or securely embedded, impacting younger children particularly those with SEND, in developing strength, coordination and confidence in movement. Opportunities for younger children to develop and extend their physical skills are not always frequently available or well thought out. - 2 Curriculum and teaching are not consistently delivered across the nursery to meet the needs of all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. - 3 Leaders and staff do not always act swiftly enough when children do not achieve their identified next steps, and the curriculum and teaching do not consistently support all children to reach their targets. Next steps identified for children with SEND are not sufficiently well matched to their individual needs, meaning smaller steps in progress are not consistently identified or tracked.
