and language skills. They use a range of very successful strategies to support children who speak languages other than English at home.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

The leadership team works collaboratively and evaluates very effectively. Leaders demonstrate an extremely high level of commitment to driving improvement and have worked hard to successfully develop a staff team that shares their ethos and high ambitions. Leaders use detailed analysis of individual children's learning to identify and rapidly close potential gaps in learning. They strive to include the views of parents in detailed plans for further development. For example, staff have improved communication to parents about the menus provided by the external contractor. Safeguarding is effective. The leadership team has a very good understanding of what to do if concerns arise and the ongoing suitability of staff is regularly reviewed. Staff complete training to update their safeguarding knowledge to protect children from harm.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff carefully plan challenging and exciting activities that address children's individual learning and development needs exceptionally well. Staff implement highly successful strategies to support children's excellent communication and language development. For example, consistent use of sign language and visual aids helps children who learn better this way. Staff contribute to children's learning at home, such as sharing teaching strategies and learning packs with parents. Staff provide exceptional opportunities for children to develop a deep understanding about things beyond their immediate environment. For example, children care for farm animals that they read about and discuss. The special educational needs coordinator closely monitors the progress of children who need extra help with learning and provides knowledgeable support to staff.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Children receive excellent support to develop good social and emotional skills. They form close bonds with key persons, who personalise their care and learning with strong involvement and a high level of support from parents. Staff gather a wide range of information about children, such as during home visits, and most children very quickly settle into nursery life. Key persons successfully implement individual and flexible routines that provide very good continuity for the youngest children. Very young children understand when their friends need extra help. For example, babies recognise when their friends are upset, stroke their hands and stay close to them to offer comfort.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

Children learn how to maintain healthy lifestyles and serve themselves water from dispensers when they feel thirsty. Babies begin to understand their need for sleep and rest, and approach key persons when they are tired. Younger children demonstrate their developing literacy skills as they read to adults. Children who speak English as an additional language make exceptional progress. All children are very well prepared for their next stages in learning and for their move on to school.
