p.1

This provision is good

 Staff communicate very well with parents and use a range of methods to do this, keeping parents well informed and enabling them to extend their children's learning at home.  The manager and staff evaluate the quality of care and education provided effectively. They seek the opinions of parents, the local school and other professionals, acting on suggestions that help to improve the provision. Constant improvements are being made which raise the outcomes for all children.  Children behave exceptionally well. Staff gently remind children of the rules, through praise and encouragement, and children take turns very well and are very kind to each other. Children learn excellent skills for future development, such as how to identify dangers and what they can do to keep themselves safe.  Staff monitor each child's progress effectively. They assess children's starting points accurately and regularly check how well children are progressing. They plan well for

their next steps in learning and their interests. This helps children to be effective learners.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Leaders do not always make the best use of the information gathered from monitoring to sharply analyse all children's progress to help them develop even more rapidly.  At times, staff do not always adjust their teaching techniques quickly enough during group activities to best meet the needs of the youngest children.

 ensure all children are fully engaged during group sessions by selecting suitable resources, taking into account the group size, children's age, interest and level of understanding  extend the systems for monitoring children's progress to provide more detailed information about the progress of all groups of children, in order to identify and support any gaps in learning.

Inspection activities

 The inspector held discussions with the manager at appropriate times during the inspection and in a scheduled meeting.  The inspector observed children's activities and staff teaching inside the premises, outside, and on a local walk.  The inspector looked at documentation, including a sample of children's records, planning and assessment records, and considered the provider's self-evaluation. She also checked records of staff suitability checks.  The inspector took account of the views of children and staff, and of parents spoken to on the day of the inspection.  The inspector observed children's learning together with the manager.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff routinely check all the areas that children use. They remove or reduce hazards and supervise children effectively while they play and learn. Successful partnerships with schools and other professionals ensure that children get the additional support they need and are well prepared for school. All staff and leaders have a good knowledge and understanding of how to promote children's safety and well-being. They thoroughly understand the procedures to take should they have a concern about a child's welfare. The manager supervises staff well and offers them training opportunities that further enhance their knowledge and skills.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Teaching is consistently of a good quality. The manager and staff are well qualified and have good childcare knowledge and experience. They are responsive to the needs of all children. Staff interact well with children. They help children who are less experienced in socialising with their peers, those who speak English as an additional language or who have special educational needs or disability, to join in and to play with other children. Staff successfully adapt their questions, explanations and use of resources to help children to understand and express themselves. Staff follow specific strategies to promote the understanding and communication of children with delayed speech.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff sharply monitor children's individual levels of well-being. Staff are exceptionally supportive to children and their families, helping every child to feel settled, included and secure in the pre-school. Children confidently select from a range of high quality activities and resources in the highly stimulating and attractive environments that interest them, inside and outside. A highly effective key-person system helps parents and children build very strong trusting relationships with staff. Children settle in extremely quickly, and staff get to know them exceptionally well when they are new. Staff extend children's understanding about the lives and needs of others very well. Children take part in a wide range of community events. They learn about how to be healthy, are able to talk about different fruits and vegetables, and show high levels of independence in their self-care.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children have high self-esteem and show high levels of social confidence. They join in, cooperate with others, and communicate increasingly effectively. All children, including those with long-term health needs and those who have special educational needs or disability, make good progress from their starting point, leading to good achievements in all areas of learning. Children develop the key skills needed for school.
