How they support every child

SEND provision

All children make good progress in their learning and development, including children who need extra help. Provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is good. Leaders work closely with parents and other professionals to identify each child's learning needs, and they then plan for these well. Funding is used appropriately to offer individual support for children who need it. This helps children to benefit from more focused teaching and accelerates the levels of progress they make.

Outdoor space

The report does not provide specific details about the outdoor space or how children use it beyond stating that the nursery provides a spacious environment.

My daughter has been at bright beginnings since she was 6 months old, she’s nearly 3 now and still loves it. She loves all the members of staff and has formed a special bond with a couple of them too. I know she is well taken care of and if I have had any worries the ladies are happy to help. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds in confidence from being here. Highly recommend!

We highly recommend Bright Beginnings, our son started at 10 months old and is now in the pre-school, and has thrived. The team have been really supportive throughout and keep us very well updated. Our son went through a phase of being very tearful at drop offs and the nursery staff worked well with us to help him settle and he now goes in happy and excited. The curriculum is well planned and has a good structure with lovely toys and activities.

Lovely nursery with caring staff and manager, with reasonable costs. We are sad to have to take out our son due to relocating but I just want to say thank you to Becky and Beth who have ensured that our son has had a lovely time every day and developed so much over the past year attending Bright Beginnings. I highly recommend this nursery!

Amazing nursery. My daughter has been going since she was 6 months old. Never had a day she hasn't wanted to be there and has always come home smiling. The girls always give feedback and i get the best pictures from her day. Would recommend to anyone
