About this early years setting

Town Tots Pre School is a term-time setting in North Walsham for children aged two to four. It operates from 9am to 3pm, Monday to Friday, and is registered to provide funded early education for three and four-year-olds. At its inspection in May 2024, Ofsted judged the pre-school to be Good. The inspector noted that kind and caring staff provide a warm welcome and that relationships between children and staff are a strength, enhancing children's confidence. Parents told the inspector that staff are approachable and helpful.

The setting uses a play-based approach, with activities including building with construction sets, looking at books, and singing songs. Staff support children to develop independence through self-care routines and by pouring their own drinks. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive tailored support to help them make good progress. To improve further, Ofsted recommended that staff are supported to deepen their knowledge of how to deliver the curriculum during adult-led activities to ensure children remain engaged.
