The day nursery is open Monday to Friday from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm, offering year-round provision. Recognised for its highly inclusive approach, the nursery warmly welcomes and supports all children, with leaders demonstrating a particular passion for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Staff are dedicated to ensuring children with SEND have every opportunity to thrive, actively implementing support plans and collaborating with parents and outside agencies. Children engage enthusiastically in a broad and balanced curriculum, which has been reviewed and improved since the previous inspection, incorporating themes that promote diversity and inclusion. Outdoor learning is a key feature, with children enjoying a range of activities that encourage physical skills and exploration, though staff vigilance is sometimes inconsistent in this area. While the quality of education can be variable, the management team is committed to continuous improvement, focusing on building strong partnerships with parents and other professionals to ensure children receive a solid foundation for future learning. What it's like The quality of education is variable and inconsistent, with learning often incidental rather than a result of staff teaching. While children make progress and enjoy exploring activities independently, some children lack a consistent key person, and staff are not always aware of their developmental stages. The management team is dedicated to improving standards and fostering positive partnerships with parents and other professionals.
