Inspector highlights

  • Children have high levels of well-being, arriving happy and excited to see their friends and settling quickly.
  • Staff teach pre-school children about choice and democracy, allowing them to vote for storybooks and feel their voice is important.
  • Leaders have improved how they monitor the curriculum, including peer-on-peer observations, leading to better communication with children.
  • Staff use effective strategies to improve babies' communication and language skills, such as repeating words and mimicking sounds.
  • There is a well-designed curriculum supporting toddlers' personal, social, and emotional development.
  • Children are independent, with pre-schoolers washing hands and tidying up, toddlers finding their photos for lunch, and babies gaining confidence feeding themselves.
  • Pre-school-age children develop finger dexterity, scooping cereals and sprinkling grains.
  • Leaders organise staff training on promoting a love of reading, leading to books and story sacks being sent home, and parents noticing children engaging with books more at home.

Areas to develop

  • 2Tailor group activities so that all pre-school-age children can contribute to discussions and extend their learning further.
