Inspector highlights
Areas to develop
Inclusion & environment
The support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who speak English as an additional language is a strength of the pre-school. Staff quickly identify children who need additional support, and they work effectively with parents and other professionals to put targeted strategies in place, tailored to children's needs and preferences.
Older children develop their physical skills well during outside play. For example, they handle real hammers and hammer in nails to wood. Children pour using teapots and make magic potions, they dig holes skilfully and confidently climb around an obstacle course.
