The nursery operates all year round, Monday to Friday, from 7am until 7pm. The overall effectiveness of the provision is Inadequate, a rating that was also given at its previous inspection. The inspectors noted that despite staff showing clear care and kindness, and the leadership team expressing a willingness to improve, the quality of care and education remains inadequate. The setting does not consistently meet the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements, particularly for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), those who speak English as an additional language (EAL), and children settling into new rooms. This inconsistency means that some children do not make the progress they are capable of. Behaviour management is inconsistent and often not suited to children's developmental stages, leading to emotional distress in many children. The curriculum struggles to meet individual learning needs, stages, or interests, and staff sometimes lack sufficient knowledge about child development, especially in communication and language. However, the arrangements for safeguarding were found to be effective, with an open and positive culture that prioritises children's interests. What it's like Despite staff showing clear care and kindness, the provider continues to deliver an inadequate quality of care and education. The setting does not meet EYFS requirements in key areas, especially for children with SEND, EAL, and those settling into new rooms. Many children show emotional distress, and staff often respond with rigid routines instead of addressing each child's emotional needs.

The setting does not meet EYFS requirements in key areas, especially for children with SEND, EAL, and those settling into new rooms.

Areas to develop - 1 improve the care and support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities to ensure that they benefit from consistently good-quality interactions that meet their individual needs and support their learning - 2 monitor staff to ensure that they manage children's behaviour effectively, helping children understand expectations and promoting their safety and well-being - 3 devise a suitably challenging curriculum that reflects the learning needs of each child and that is understood and implemented effectively by all staff - 4 improve the organisation of daily routines to fully support children's emotional well-being and enjoyment - 5 provide effective training and support for staff to improve the quality of education. Inspection #10416784 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50292830) Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision The provider does not ensure that children with SEND receive effective support. Although staff work with other agencies and have individual education plans for some children, the provider has not ensured that these are put into practice consistently. As a result, children with SEND often wander around or roll on the floor without clear guidance or engagement. Outdoor space The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact that this was having on children's learning.
