## About this day nursery

Austin Farm Academy, situated at the end of Delamere Road in Eggbuckland, Plymouth, is a single-form entry school that prides itself on nurturing children to thrive and succeed. The academy fosters an environment where children are encouraged to be proud of their school, their achievements, and their behaviour.

A core belief at Austin Farm is the importance of resilience, equipping children with the confidence and optimism to tackle life's challenges. Respect is another fundamental value, extending to themselves, each other, and their surroundings, creating a calm and purposeful atmosphere conducive to learning.

The academy emphasises strong relationships with both children and families, recognising education as a partnership between home and school. This collaborative approach aims to ensure every child has a positive experience during their time at the school.

Austin Farm Academy is also a member of the Westcountry Schools Trust, a network of 18 primary and 8 secondary schools, which facilitates collaboration, school development, and the sharing of best practices. Despite considering itself a "hidden gem," the academy invites prospective families to visit and experience its unique offerings.

Our ethos

At Austin Farm we are proud of our school, our children, our behaviour and our curriculum; we want you to feel that pride too. We encourage our children to be resilient, so they are ready to tackle all of life's challenges with confidence and optimism. We are respectful to ourselves, each other and our environment. There is a calm, purposeful atmosphere during lessons because we know that learning is the pathway to success. We strive to build strong relationships with our children and our families; we know that education is most effective when there is a partnership between home and school; by working alongside all families we aim to ensure every child’s time at our school is a positive experience.

What it's like

Leaders have made good improvements since their last inspection. Safeguarding procedures are robust and staff support children's language and communication skills effectively. Staff also implement effective strategies to manage children's behaviour using visual cues to help them understand their feelings.

## How they support every child

SEND provision

This report does not contain information about how the provider supports children with special educational needs and disabilities.

Outdoor space

Children enjoy exploring pine cones and shells in a pattern on the table. Following some children's visit to the beach, staff provide props and resources in the garden to recreate the experience. Children are imaginative and make each other ice creams and play at the beach café. However, staff are not always deployed effectively outside to ensure all children remain engaged and focused on their learning.
