 The inspectors toured all areas of the nursery.

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Staff receive outstanding support from leaders to help improve their already first-class knowledge and skills. Performance management is rigorous. Teaching is regularly evaluated and staff are provided with highly focused supervision and training. Safeguarding is effective. Children's safety is given the utmost priority. A culture of vigilance is promoted. Leaders ensure that staff know precisely what to do if they are concerned about a child's welfare or the actions of a colleague. Highly effective systems are used to monitor the progress of individual and groups of children. This helps to ensure any identified gaps in learning are swiftly addressed. Leaders are currently trialling new methods to continue to enhance this even further and will reflect on the impact of this.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

The nursery buzzes with excitement as children willingly participate in stimulating activities. Older children are fascinated and amused during a pirate themed yoga session. Children demonstrate excellent listening skills and follow instructions well. They excitedly peer through telescopes and delight in searching for features and landmarks on treasure maps, articulating what they can see. Children develop excellent literacy skills. Older children confidently form letters and shapes using writing tools and articulately use phonetical sounds during an animated picture matching game. Younger children delight in arranging assorted greenery, twigs and leaves onto sticky surfaces and make marks using paint on interesting surfaces, which include bubble wrap. Babies explore exciting sensory materials. They delight feeling the texture of soft foam and textured balls.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Transitions are exceptionally well planned for. Children access 'family books' with photographs of special people. This helps children to settle well and gain a superb sense of belonging. Staff have developed excellent relationships with local school teachers. This helps children to be remarkably well-prepared for school and helps to ensure consistency for older children who attend both settings. The key-person system is highly effective. Babies' care is carefully tailored to reflect routines from home. They are well-supported by staff and appear to be truly happy and content. Highly positive hygiene routines are adopted. Children's diets and individual needs are meticulously planned for. Staff work harmoniously with parents to ensure that children's health is exceptionally well promoted.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children, including those in receipt of funding and who have special educational needs and/or disabilities make excellent progress from the start. Children are superbly prepared for future learning and their eventual move on to school. For example, older children confidently add and subtract coloured cubes and recognise numerals as staff ask challenging mathematical questions. Children confidently communicate their needs and preferences and make independent choices from available resources. For example, even young children explore the delightful environment and decide to play indoors or outdoors with poise and self-assurance.
