The setting meets legal requirements for early years settings

p.1

This provision is good

 Staff successfully support children who speak English as an additional language. They enable all children to understand the routines of the day and take part in the activities provided. Consequently, all children gain a sense of belonging and enjoy attending.  Teaching is good. The well-qualified staff team has attended relevant training and continues to build on their good understanding of how to promote children's learning.  Children are happy and confident. Secure relationships with staff enable children to develop their independence, self-esteem and social skills.  Safeguarding is given high priority. Staff understand their responsibilities to record and report any child protection concerns. Children are safe because staff provide vigilant supervision during activities.  Parents receive good information about the nursery so that they are aware of the provision's responsibilities. In addition, parents are effectively supported to further

p.1

This provision is good

develop their children's learning at home.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Partnerships with other early years settings children attend are not fully developed. There is not a consistent flow of information about children's ongoing learning and development to ensure children benefit from a shared approach to help them progress.  Staff do not always work well together with the schools children will be moving on to, in order to help children feel confident about the changes ahead.

p.1

What the setting needs to do to improve further

To further improve the quality of the early years provision the provider should:

p.2

What the setting needs to do to improve further

 share more information about children's learning and development with other settings they attend  develop effective partnerships with all schools that children are moving on to, to help all children feel well prepared for their move.

p.2

Inspection activities

 The inspector had a tour of the nursery and held discussions with the manager.  The inspector carried out a joint observation with the manager.  The inspector observed adult-led and free-play activities taking place in the playroom and outside area.  The inspector took into account the views of parents and carers spoken to on the day.  The inspector checked evidence of suitability and qualifications of staff working with children and the nursery's self-evaluation plan.

p.2

who attend. This is good

Staff observe children to identify their interests and next steps for learning. This information is then used to provide children with a wide range of resources and activities to help them progress. Activities cover all of the seven areas of learning and skilful teaching means that children engage well and develop key skills in readiness for school. Older children show excitement as they participate in a group singing time, which promotes their social development and communication well. Children choose which rhyme they would like to sing. Staff use hand signals to represent words to support all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Babies develop strong emotional attachments with their key persons. They giggle and smile when they are chased around on the floor by staff. Staff have developed links with one local school but do not have partnerships in place with other schools children will go on to. This means

p.3

who attend. This is good

that not all children are as emotionally well supported for their future move.

p.3

good

Staff successfully support children's physical development. Children use climbing equipment as staff stand close-by to encourage less confident children. This enables children to take appropriate risks and benefit from being active. Staff encourage children to choose from healthy and nutritious snacks and drinks, promoting children's well-being and independence. Children select their toothbrush and staff explain to children how to clean their teeth after lunch. This helps children to understand the importance of good oral hygiene. Staff prepare children for playing outside in the sun by applying sun cream and asking older children to put on their own cream. Staff play alongside children and help them to share and take turns. This helps children to understand appropriate behaviour and to build relationships with their peers. Staff take time to build relationships with parents and children as they enter the nursery. Consequently, parents have confidence in

p.3

good

the staff and children settle well and develop strong relationships.

p.3

provision is good

Supervision systems are in place to support staff's ongoing professional development and good practice. The manager encourages staff to participate in regular team meetings and attend relevant training courses. This means that they have a good understanding of the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage. Staff assess the development of their key children and the manager has an overview of children's progress. This ensures that any gaps in children's learning are quickly identified and addressed. The manager uses information from tracking children's progress, and feedback from parents, to identify any weaknesses in provision. Improvements are made and reflected upon to ensure they benefit the children and families that attend. Staff share some information with key people at other provisions when children first start attending other early years settings. However, partnership working is not fully established to fully support children's next steps in learning
