p.1

This provision is outstanding

 Relationships between staff, children and parents are very respectful. Children settle extremely quickly into the daily routines and develop a very strong sense of belonging and self-worth. Their behaviour is excellent.  Staff support and challenge children's thinking very effectively. All children make outstanding progress in relation to their different starting points. Children learning English as an additional language, or receiving speech and language support, equally make rapid and substantial gains. Children are extremely well prepared for the next stages in their learning, including the move to school.  Staff attend to babies extremely well. Babies learn to explore high-quality resources safely. They giggle, squeal happily and learn a lot of words as they play.  Highly effective partnerships with parents and outside professionals make an excellent contribution to helping staff meet the needs of all children.

p.1

This provision is outstanding

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Safeguarding is effective. Very robust recruitment and induction procedures ensure that staff are suitable to work with children. Staff have an excellent knowledge of safeguarding practices and follow the correct reporting procedures to protect children. Managers are actively raising the importance of safeguarding in the local community. Managers observe staff regularly, set them challenging targets and hold them accountable for children's achievement. Managers and staff track the progress of each child and groups. When they spot any gaps in children's learning, they quickly provide excellent support to help close them. Staff make exceptional use of knowledge and skills they have learnt in training to benefit children's learning. For example, they provide a wealth of opportunities to help children practise their early writing skills. Managers act on the views of staff, parents, children and outside professionals to provide an excellent service.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff meticulously plan and provide memorable experiences to meet the needs of each child. Children are extremely well motivated and excited to learn. They make inspired comments on what they see, feel or taste. For example, they explored fresh ingredients to make fresh pizzas to serve for lunch. They prepare playdough and talk about the changes that happen when flour and water are mixed. Staff interact very effectively with children and follow their interests exceptionally well to deepen their learning. Children love reading and eagerly retell stories using the language of books. They sing and dance beautifully to music. They develop superb knowledge of other people and their cultures.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff are wonderful role models for children. They share their behavioural rules with children and parents so they are clear about the expectations. Children share toys fairly and tidy resources without a reminder. Children demonstrate an extremely wide knowledge of healthy living. For instance, they know that milk has calcium to help their teeth and bones grow and they tell each other that too much sun can hurt their skin. Staff highly value children's safety. For example, they conduct thorough, regular checks on the premises to help children manage risks very effectively. Children develop excellent physical skills and staff are now considering further ways to use the high-quality resources available to enhance the physical skills of the older children when playing outdoors.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children make excellent progress and any gaps in learning close quickly. Children develop high levels of confidence and independence. Older children develop extremely competent self-care routines and fully support the young ones. They count, make patterns, add and compare numerals superbly to support their mathematical awareness.
