Areas to develop
Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection
Parents speak highly of the setting, commenting on how much their children are learning about the world. For example, children come home talking about the amphibians and the solar system.
Inclusion & environment
Staff identify when children may need additional support to reach their full potential. The leaders, key persons and parents work closely with other professionals and implement effective individual plans that support those children's learning.
Children have daily opportunities for fresh air and exercise. They also take part in regular trips into the local community. For instance, they enjoy outings to the park, where they access large, fixed equipment. This all helps to strengthen children's physical skills.
