Inspector highlights - The provision has a friendly, inclusive and warm welcome. Children are engaged, highly motivated and eager to learn. - Staff follow children's interests very well and prepare interesting activities that excite children's curiosity. - Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities make good progress from their starting points, and the manager seeks advice from external professionals in a timely manner. - Children have ample opportunities to build on core muscle strength and develop good hand-to-eye coordination, learning to climb trees and navigate outdoor obstacles safely. - Children's emotional well-being is supported as staff carefully plan small steps to promote their sense of achievement in self-care interactions. Areas to develop - 1 enhance links with other providers and share information about every child's development when children attend more than one setting - 2 further support staff to plan more precisely for children with additional needs so that staff respond consistently when developing children's emerging communication skills Inspection #10194546 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50191359) ## What parents say Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection > They say how open and friendly staff are. Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities make good progress from their starting points. The manager ensures she seeks advice from external professionals and acts on this to benefit children's development in a timely manner. However, on occasions, staff do not make sure that children's targets and support plans are specific enough, meaning not all staff respond to children's emerging communication skills in a consistent manner. Outdoor space Children settle into their play immediately and develop good physical skills, zooming around the playground safely on wheeled vehicles. They have ample opportunities to build on core muscle strength and develop good hand-to-eye coordination, learning to climb trees while checking they only climb on branches that are at least as "thick as your arm". Children straddle large logs, weave in and out of tall grass and scoot up and down mud banks. The inspector observed the quality of education during activities outdoors.
