p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Managers are exceptional role models. They recognise the importance of continuing to enhance all staff's knowledge, skills and expertise even further. They offer excellent opportunities for professional development through regular training and direct support. For example, staff new to the pre-school room received training on supporting children to learn phonics. This has had a direct impact on staff confidence and their ability to consistently provide the highest standards of teaching. Safeguarding is effective. Management and staff have extensive knowledge of safeguarding policies and legislation. Staff are fully aware of the procedure to follow should they have any child protection concerns. Robust self-evaluation helps to drive the quality of the nursery forward. The management team is currently setting up a parents' committee. The aim is to continue to strengthen the parents' voice and find even more ways to enhance communication to

maintain the highest outcomes for all children.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Children thrive in this nursery. Younger children spontaneously socialise with the older children during their play. This helps to extend their learning and development. Staff skilfully turn every opportunity, including planned and spontaneous activities into high- quality learning experiences for children. Children in the pre-school room immediately immerse themselves in the interesting and exciting activities on offer. For example, staff introduce x-ray pictures of insects to discover on the light board. Children are fascinated and keenly ask questions about the creatures. For example, they ask if all creatures have skeletons. Staff show their high expectations of the children as they answer, introducing new words and information, such as what an 'exoskeleton' is.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Children are extremely confident and independent. For example, during mealtimes, older children help to serve meals and pour drinks. Children thoroughly benefit from staff that understand the importance of outdoor play. Children in the Owls room choose the umbrella they want, put on their Wellington boots and raincoat, and enjoy a walk across the fields in the rain. These superb outdoor experiences help children to learn new skills, manage their own risks and become resilient to the colder weather. Similarly, children's physical skills are enhanced as they balance on wooden planks and ride assuredly on bicycles to test and challenge their abilities.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

Scrupulous monitoring of children's progress means any potential gaps in children's learning are planned for and closed. Children in receipt of additional funding are provided with an individualised plan with the funding being used to help children catch up very quickly. Babies are provided with excellent resources, equipment and space to help them develop their large physical skills. Children are learning useful skills that help to ensure they are well prepared for the next stage in their learning, including for school.
