## About this day nursery

The Goslings Preschool provides a nurturing and stimulating environment where children aged 2 to 4 years old can grow, develop, and achieve their full potential. The preschool focuses on encouraging independence, building self-esteem, and fostering confidence through a curriculum that follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Birth to 5 Matters.

Children engage in structured play, interact with peers and adults, and develop key skills such as listening, speaking, and cooperation, preparing them to be capable and confident as they transition to primary school. Committed to providing an outstanding level of care, The Goslings Preschool also offers an ambitious and inclusive curriculum with Ofsted's 3 I's embedded throughout.

The preschool operates during term time with both morning and afternoon sessions available, and staff are highly qualified, with all full-time members holding NVQ Level 3 qualifications and part-time staff working towards the same.

Our ethos

We aim to help children achieve their full potential by encouraging independence, building self esteem and confidence. Children at The Goslings develop through structured play, interaction and socialisation with other children and adults, becoming capable and confident by the time they begin their primary school journey.

What it's like

The manager, pre-school committee and staff have worked tirelessly to drive improvements over recent months. They have identified a detailed action plan and made a number of changes to address actions raised at the last inspection. Staff now capture children's interests and meet learning needs through targeted teaching. Overall, this is a busy pre-school where children are settled, happy and well-supported in their learning.
