This provision is good

 The managers are dedicated and enthusiastic with high expectations of what children can achieve. They evaluate and monitor the quality of the provision to help ensure that all children achieve their potential.  Staff provide a very stimulating and inclusive learning environment.

They are eager to learn and share with others.  The effective key-person system helps staff to meet the individual needs of children. Staff support children to develop positive social skills, understand how to behave well and stay safe.  Staff work well with parents and relevant agencies to provide continuity and progression in children's learning.  Children have access to different activities and resources to help them learn about their own cultures, other people and their communities.

This provision is good

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff have a good knowledge of safeguarding requirements to protect children in their care. The manager observes staff regularly and they observe each other, giving feedback to help strengthen their skills. The manager is supportive of staff's continuing professional development, such as through regular training, supervisory meetings and appraisals. The manager uses self-evaluation as an effective tool to set measurable targets to develop the service. For example, the implementation of a new progress tracker in the nursery helped the manager and staff to realise that they needed to develop children's technology skills more. New equipment has been purchased to help extend children's learning in this aspect.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff make effective use of observations and assessments to monitor children's progress. They use this information to plan interesting and stimulating activities based on children's individual needs and interests, to successfully engage the children. Children enjoy making towers or counting the bears, using mathematical language. Role play is exciting to the children as they sort real vegetables into bowls in the home corner. Younger children enjoy sensory play, such as making 'pies' and 'cakes' in the mud kitchen or rolling out play dough. Staff encourage children to draw pictures and look at favourite books. Staff work with other providers and relevant agencies to make sure that children receive the support they need.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff form good relationships with children and support their social and emotional skills well. They gather relevant information from parents about the care and capabilities of the children, to build on what they already know. Parents comment that their children are happy to attend the setting. Staff are positive role models and help children to share and care for each other. They help the children to feel valued and they offer praise for their good behaviour. Children enjoy physical activity in the large garden, for example, using the slide or the bicycles. Staff support a healthy lifestyle and provide a range of nutritious meals and fruits for children to enjoy.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress from their starting points. Young children learn to imitate and explore words, for example, by singing songs, hearing the sounds that letters represent and counting objects. Children gain a wide range of skills which helps them to prepare for the next stage in their learning. Children behave well, develop excellent relationships and quickly learn to be cooperative and tolerant of others. Children choose from a range of interesting resources to develop their play. They are eager to take part in different activities that enhance their learning experiences.
