settings that children attend, to ensure there is consistency in children's learning and care.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff skilfully support children during play, promoting their curiosity and exploration. For example, staff extend a magnet activity from home to include children's experiences of various science experiments that excite and inspire them to learn about magnets and how they work. Staff use every opportunity to support children's language skills. For example, they describe what younger children are doing, and use signs or visual aids to help them to communicate. With older children, staff introduce new vocabulary and ask questions to extend children's learning and challenge them.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

All children behave extremely well and display exceptional self-control. Children consider the feelings of others, managing disagreements independently. For example, they work cooperatively to ensure that each child gets equal turns when using popular resources. Children have an extremely good understanding of how to be safe and manage risks and challenges. For example, they help in risk assessing the garden each morning and use a safety mascot to remind each other of the possible dangers in the environment.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children make excellent progress from their starting points. They are active, confident learners who concentrate on tasks for extended periods and persevere to master difficult tasks. Older children develop advanced skills in literacy and mathematics. For example, they use writing materials for different purposes, such as recalling past events or writing shopping lists. From a young age children develop excellent independence skills. For example, young children learn to serve and pour their own drinks and enjoy helping with small tasks. Children are remarkably well prepared for their future learning.
