The day nursery has an outdoor garden and is open from 8am until 6pm, Monday to Friday, for 50 weeks of the year. It provides funded early education places for two, three, and four-year-olds. At its inspection in July 2022, Ofsted judged the overall effectiveness of the nursery to be Good. The Ofsted report noted that staff plan activities based on observations of what children can already do, in order to plan their next steps in learning. Inspectors found that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are well supported, as are children who speak English as an additional language. Children develop their physical skills in the garden on obstacle courses and show curiosity for nature. They are also supported to develop their independence through tasks like preparing snacks for their friends and washing their hands. What it's like Since the last inspection, leaders have reflected on the curriculum and made significant improvements to the way in which they teach. Children are highly engaged in learning about insects and make good progress across all areas of learning. Children form good bonds with their key person and settle quickly, meaning they are ready to learn.

Staff adapt activities and routines to take account of their individual needs. For example, children who find whole-group activities difficult are given individual support. As a result, they do not miss out on any learning opportunities and make the good progress of which they are capable. Outdoor space Children show curiosity in their environment, hunting for ladybirds in the garden. Children make good progress in their physical development. They move along obstacle courses with confidence. EAL / language support Children who speak English as an additional language are supported to develop both their home language and their emerging spoken English. When welcoming children to the session, staff sing 'hello' in the different languages of the children who attend. They use online translation services and ask parents about key words in children's home languages. As a result, children are building their confidence in using both languages as they play. ## Google Reviews of Toy Box Nursery Scunthorpe 5.0 (3 Google reviews) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/ACg8ocLogUgi66r2fYgURt6lq36-8vaUVZrraucB_mz0NF-aiT7RSA=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba4) Jumper 2 years ago Lovely place.
