This provision is good

 Staff offer a calm and nurturing learning environment. Children settle well into daily routines and develop a good sense of belonging and self-worth. They play and learn happily. Children's behaviour is good.  Staff attend well to the needs of all children. Children make good progress in relation to their different starting points. Children who speak English as an additional language or who have special educational needs (SEN) equally make good gains. Children are ready for the next stages in their learning, including readiness for school.  Managers and staff work well with outside professionals and other early years providers to help ensure good continuity and progression in children's learning and development.  Staff conduct regular and thorough checks on the premises and resources to help children remain safe and secure.  Managers consistently assess and evaluate the quality of the provision.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The provider undertakes robust vetting checks on all staff to ensure that they are suitable for their roles. Staff have a good knowledge of safeguarding practices and follow the correct procedures to protect children in their care. Managers and staff check the progress of all children. When identifying any issues, they provide good support to help narrow gaps in children's learning. Managers observe staff effectively and give them constructive feedback to help them strengthen their skills. Staff attend additional training to further develop the quality of their practice. This is evident in the way they support children's speaking skills and help improve their attention span. Managers and staff seek the views and comments of parents, children and others to continually improve their service.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff gather detailed information about the children to establish their starting points. They use this information along with their observations to assess and plan stimulating activities to enthuse children to learn. Staff introduce new experiences to children and show them how to use resources safely. Children are interested and well-motivated to learn. For example, they use different construction tools and build models purposefully. Children engage well in rhymes and learn new songs. They learn to roll, pat and cut play dough into different shapes. Children are developing good technology skills. For example, they know how to operate a computer to play games and listen to favourite stories and songs. Staff keep parents well informed about their children's progress and well-being.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The caring staff build strong relationships with children and support their social and emotional well-being effectively. For example, staff remind children that 'sharing is caring'. Children get on well with each other and learn to share and take turns fairly with toys and equipment. Staff talk to children about the importance of healthy eating and meet their dietary requirements well. For example, staff teach children that milk and fruit help them grow and develop. Staff encourage children to serve themselves. They help children learn to tolerate and respect others.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children of all abilities make good progress and any gaps in their learning are closing. Young children are developing in confidence. Children listen carefully and respond well to instructions. Older children recognise some letters and the sounds they represent. They eagerly practise their writing skills. Children count objects, recognise numerals in print and make simple patterns. They confidently solve problems. Children are aware of the changes that happen to the weather around them. They remind their friends to put their coats on before going outside to play.
