Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Safeguarding is effective. Leaders are extremely knowledgeable. They ensure that all staff have a thorough understanding of their role and responsibility to keep children safe. This helps to protect children's welfare. Staff receive a superb level of support. All staff have a meticulous programme for their own professional development. Leaders observe staff practice and provide regular meetings and training opportunities. This helps them to continue to improve their already excellent skills and knowledge. Parents are extremely complimentary about the first-rate care and education that children receive. Staff truly value and encourage parental involvement and understand the vital role that they play. Leaders are currently looking at introducing further ways to gather even more feedback from parents and children to help maintain the exceptional quality.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

The nursery buzzes with excitement as children participate in extremely carefully planned and purposeful activities. For example, following a recent celebration, pre-school children use chopsticks and paint to create symbols and patterns. They engage in animated discussions and articulate which animal their birth date represents. Younger children explore a fascinating range of sensory play materials. They inquisitively experiment in cornflour and paint, using different tools and equipment. Children develop a great interest in much loved books and rhymes. For example, during story time pre-school children listen to and answer questions about a favourite book and anticipate what will happen next. Furthermore, during outdoor play, two-year-olds recreate a familiar story. They delight in splashing and squelching as they manoeuvre under, over and through water and mud, laughing wholeheartedly as they continue with their journey.

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Transition arrangements are exceptionally well planned for. Children settle into the warm and welcoming environment with ease. Older children are helped to make a smooth transfer to school. Children's health is superbly promoted. The chef takes great pride in preparing an excellent range of nutritious and appetising meals. Mealtimes are a highly social occasion. Staff model positive hygiene practices. They ask purposeful questions to teach children the importance of making healthy food choices. Children eagerly explore the splendid outdoor environment and delight in regular active and energetic play.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children, make rapid and sustained progress. They demonstrate a can-do attitude, even when faced with challenging activities. Younger children persevere to throw bean bags through hoops. Children are exceptionally well prepared for future learning and school. Older children show impressive skills as they skilfully write their names. They communicate with staff and their peers eloquently. Two-year-olds show remarkable self- care skills. For example, they capably use cutlery to eat meals. Babies confidently explore their dedicated areas with confidence and amazing levels of self-assurance.
