p.1

The provision is good

n Staff effectively share regular information about children's progress and ideas for how parents can support learning at home, including through verbal feedback and social media. n The management team successfully monitors individual children's progress, analyses data collected on specific groups of children and uses this well to address any gaps in learning and development. n Staff promote children's healthy lifestyles well. Children enjoy healthy snacks and meals, and benefit from exercise in the outdoor environment. n Staff make excellent use of risk assessments to identify and minimise potential hazards. Children manage their own safety well. n Managers and staff have worked hard since the last inspection to make significant changes and have a clear vision of how to drive improvement to better meet the needs of children.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

n The pace at which staff give information during play and activities is occasionally too fast for some children to consider, develop and express their own emerging ideas. n At times, staff do not plan activities effectively to maintain children's focus and attention.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Managers and staff have a good understanding of how to identify and manage safeguarding concerns. They are clear about their responsibility to protect children and keep them safe. Robust procedures are in place for the recruitment of staff. The management team monitors staff performance efficiently. For instance, the team regularly observes staff practice and holds individual supervisory meetings. Staff are encouraged to consider their own training needs and where they need additional support. Consequently, all staff have opportunities to progress in their professional development. For instance, they have attended training on how to make accurate assessments to identify any gaps in learning, to improve planning for individual children. The management team evaluates its practice well, taking into account the views of parents, who are complimentary about the service they receive.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide children with a wide range of interesting activities and place a strong emphasis on developing children's interests. Following a recent trip to a museum, where the children made jewellery and clay pots, staff have incorporated children's interest in Ancient Egypt into planning. Younger children practise a skill of balancing on the tyres in the outdoor environment. Children are developing an understanding of the world. Staff work closely with them, as they make observational drawings of onions that they have grown. Staff complete accurate assessments of children's progress by regularly observing them in their play. Children explore the indoor and outdoor environment freely, and staff follow their lead as they play to extend learning.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children's emotional well-being is supported. Children benefit from close relationships with their key person and other staff. They seek comfort and reassurance when needed. Children develop friendships with each other. Staff promote positive behaviour and the use of good manners. For example, they sing a 'please and thank you' song at mealtimes. Children learn to be independent during daily routines. For example, children choose when to have a snack throughout the morning. Staff offer frequent praise and encouragement to children to build their self-esteem and assurance.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress from their starting points and develop the skills that will help them with their future learning and in readiness for school. They develop early problem-solving skills. For example, young children work out how to turn on interactive toys and operate catches. Children are active learners and communicate well.
