Inspector highlights - Leaders place strong emphasis on self-evaluation, seeking views of parents and staff to reflect on provision quality and implement action plans for improvement. - Staff recognise and value the importance of getting to know children well, which provides vital information to identify what to teach based on existing knowledge and skills. - Children enjoy having opportunities to play in the outdoor areas of the nursery, and staff support them to practise gross motor skills and develop positive social skills. - Leaders and staff work closely with children to identify their learning needs, liaising with the SENCo and external professionals when delays are identified. - Staff support children to develop communication and language skills through regular story and song times, encouraging participation and extending vocabulary. - Partnerships with parents are effective, with staff knowing children well and providing continuity of care, tailoring care to individual needs based on parent information. Areas to develop - 1 strengthen staff's teaching skills so curriculum planning is sequenced and implemented so children build on their knowledge step by step to help them learn well - 2 continue to extend plans for the outdoor provision so children receive exposure to experiences that develop their skills across all seven areas of learning - 3 review support plans for children with delays in their learning so they clearly show the precise strategies required to help children catch up Inspection #10305544 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50239554) ### Official Ofsted Report Independent inspection of Wendy House Nursery Inspection date Jan 2024 Inspection no. 10305544 Lead inspector Sherrie Nyss Safeguarding arrangements are effective [Download full report (PDF)](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50239554)[View on Ofsted.gov.uk](https://reports.ofsted.gov.uk/provider/16/2653209) Visit or enquire ### Book a show-around Most settings reply within 48 hours.

Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Leaders and staff work closely with children to identify their learning needs. When staff recognise children have delays in learning, they liaise with the special educational needs coordinator (SENCo). The SENCo works with the manager to ensure referrals to external professionals are made in a timely manner. In the interim period, the SENCo and staff provide support plans to help children catch up. Staff offer good levels of interaction and engagement through play experiences to support children with delays in learning. Outdoor space Children enjoy having opportunities to play in the outdoor areas of the nursery. Staff seek ways to support children to practise their gross motor skills as they navigate and balance across rubber tyres. Children demonstrate positive social skills as they collaborate together to play 'What's the time, Mr Wolf?'. The setting needs to continue to extend plans for the outdoor provision to ensure learning opportunities cover all areas of learning.
