It is not yet outstanding because:

 On occasions, children's play is interrupted. Staff interrupt children's learning and clear away activities. Children are not always given sufficient time to pursue their learning or return to previous activities to complete them to their satisfaction.  Staff do not organise group activities well enough. Occasionally they are too long and not sufficiently focused on extending children's learning to a higher level.

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Leadership is very effective. Staff work well together as a team and provide for the children's individual needs. The manager monitors children's progress and staff performance effectively. She supports staff very well and has high expectations of them. Staff attend regular training courses and use the knowledge and ideas gained to enhance children's learning. Safeguarding is effective.

Recruitment procedures are robust and ensure all staff are suitable to work with children. Partnerships with the school, local authority and outside agencies are well established. The manager uses extra funding effectively.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff are well qualified and very enthusiastic in how they interact with children. Overall, the quality of teaching is good. Staff understand that children learn through play and provide an exciting environment that promotes learning very well. Most of the activities staff provide inspire and enthuse the children. Staff foster children's communication and language skills very well. They encourage purposeful conversations and ask children questions. This helps children to use their speaking skills effectively and think about what they are doing. Babies are developing well and thrive in the well-organised baby room. They enjoy pop-up toys and sensory equipment. Staff promote children's imagination well. For example, toddlers explore and dig in the construction area and become builders. Pre- school children are learning to investigate. For example, staff help children to explore tea and coffee as they play in the role play area.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children thrive at the nursery. They demonstrate that they are comfortable in their surroundings. Staff manage children's behaviour well. They are positive role models and provide clear explanations to help children know what is expected. Children show respect for others and play harmoniously together. Staff promote children's personal skills effectively. They encourage children to spread butter on bread and chop vegetables as they play in the kitchen area. They help children learn how to use their cutlery effectively. Children are beginning to learn about healthy lifestyles and how to keep themselves safe. They take part in daily exercise and enjoy healthy snacks and meals. Staff effectively prepare children as they move through the nursery and on to pre-school. Children learn about diversity well. They celebrate different cultures throughout the year and learn about their own community.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

All children are progressing well in their learning. Children are acquiring the key skills for future learning and have a positive attitude. They are gaining good independence skills. Pre-school children are developing good early writing skills. They write their names and draw their favourite things, such as dinosaurs. Children's physical development is good. They handle a variety of equipment efficiently and gain good control and coordination of their bodies. They balance and climb while playing outside and learn to throw skilfully.
