well. She and senior staff monitor children's individual progress and the progress of groups of children meticulously. They make highly effective adjustments to improve children's excellent outcomes.

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Safeguarding is effective. Staff have an excellent understanding of child protection and know the correct procedure to follow if they have concerns about any child's welfare. The management team has an exemplary knowledge and understanding of its responsibilities. It regularly reviews and updates the excellent policies and procedures that underpin staff's outstanding teaching and care practices. Staff carry out detailed safety risk assessments to ensure that the premises are safe and secure. The manager implements excellent arrangements for the recruitment and induction of new staff, ensuring all adults are qualified and suitable to work with children. Self-evaluation procedures are superb and include the views of parents, staff and children to help drive improvements.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff encourage children extremely well to manage daily tasks. For example, they sensitively support very young children to pour their own drinks and serve their own food. However, very occasionally, some resources are not as accessible to children, particularly to enhance their opportunity for independent play. Staff expertly re-shape activities and discussions, enabling children to develop their mathematical, language and literacy skills. For example, children sequence and sort objects of differing size and colour and learn how to write their names. Staff share skills learnt from recent training to enrich children's learning. For instance, they are currently working with parents in developing their knowledge about how children learn through play. Staff use precise information from assessments and their comprehensive knowledge of each child to secure timely interventions and support. This helps to ensure that all children make rapid progress.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff are exceptional role models in helping children to manage feelings. For example, older children comfort young ones to settle in by speaking in the same home language. Staff ensure children develop a strong awareness of healthy lifestyles. For example, during mealtimes, they discuss the benefits of eating vegetables and children are highly responsive. For instance, they join in by commenting on how 'big and strong' they are, and discuss where milk comes from, including how it makes their bones strong. Key persons use their detailed knowledge of each child's needs and home routines effectively. They observe children closely to take note of any preferences to help them settle.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

Children thrive and are extremely well prepared for their next stage in learning, including school. They develop excellent early reading and writing skills, and are highly enthusiastic to explore their surroundings. They enjoy celebrating their achievements together and supporting each other, such as when selecting shapes to create their pirate ship collages.
