p.1

This provision requires improvement. It is not yet good because:

 Staff do not deliver adult-led activities well enough to take account of the differing ages and abilities in order to ensure children make the best possible progress.  The supervision and coaching of staff is not yet effective to ensure all aspects of teaching is strong.  Leaders and staff have not fully considered ways of minimising security risks that come from unlocked doors that provide an emergency escape route.  Not all records are effectively organised in a way that makes them clear.

p.1

It has the following strengths

 Staff have good links with external agencies, such as a local children's centre and speech and language therapists. This helps to support children who have speech and language delay. As a result, children quickly catch up with their peers and are better prepared for school when the time comes.  Staff develop strong relationships with parents. For example, parents attend workshops on safeguarding issues and take part in topical events, such as Valentines Day. Parents are positive about the nursery and talk about how happy their children are.  Children are happy and settled. Staff are caring. The effective key person system helps new children make an easy transition from home to nursery. This supports children's emotional well-being.

Inspection activities

 The inspector observed the quality of teaching during activities and assessed the impact this has on children's learning. Babies were not present during the inspection.  The inspector completed a joint observation of an activity with the manager.  The inspector spoke to the nominated individual, manager, staff and children at appropriate times. She looked at relevant documentation and checked the suitability of persons working on the premises.  The inspector spoke to parents and took into account their views.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management requires improvement

The manager's new arrangements to observe and coach staff are not sufficiently embedded. Therefore, staff supervision does not fully identify and address all weaknesses in teaching. The manager and deputy support staff with their assessments and planning for the next steps in their key children's learning. The manager has an effective system for tracking children's progress. This helps to identify any gaps in children's development, including summer born children and children who have English as an additional language. The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Leader's and staff receive child protection training which gives them a wider understanding of the potential risks to children. In addition, recruitment procedures are robust. Although the manager and staff complete risk assessments and records for the safety of children and the effective management of the setting, they have not fully assessed risks that arise from emergency

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement

Staff do not deliver adult-led activities well enough to help all children make good progress. Staff prioritise and use fun ways to introduce vocabulary and numbers to children, such as during circle time. They help children to become aware and interested in the sounds that letters make. Staff constantly ask children questions. However, they do not always base activities on children's differing ages and abilities. As a result, some children are not challenged enough and some children are not able to understand what is being asked of them. As a result, they lose interest in the activity. At other times, staff effectively support children's learning. For example, they use mathematical language, such as ‘more’ and encourage children to count. They provide opportunities for children to make links with home through role play.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare require improvement

Behaviour is generally good and children develop friendships with each other. They use 'thumbs up' or 'thumbs down' to communicate with each other. Staff support children to share and play cooperatively. Children enjoy being active and choose to spend time outdoors. Children practice their physical skills as they ride scooters and dig in mud. Children develop good self-care skills. They serve their own food and help themselves to drinks of water during the day. This helps children to develop their understanding about a healthy lifestyle. Staff focus well on supporting children's emotional development. For instance, older children spend time in the baby room and become 'star of the week' for helping.

p.3

Outcomes for children require improvement

Most children are generally showing typical progress and are gaining the skills to prepare them for their next stage of learning. That said, staff do not consistently support them to make the best progress possible. On occasion, children lose their concentration and motivation to engage. At other times, children are eager to demonstrate what they know and are proud of their achievements. Staff work hard to promote children's communication and language. They research Arabic phrases, such as 'come here' to support children's understanding of English and to promote their home language.
