p.1

The provision is good

n The manager and provider lead the staff team successfully. They constantly seek ideas for improvement from staff and parents, to help them develop clear plans that help to maintain consistently good outcomes for children. Self-evaluation is effective. n Staff work exceptionally well with parents and other professionals to support children who have specific learning needs. Advice received is implemented very effectively during planning and ensures children receive a consistent approach from all adults working with them. n Staff are kind and caring with the children.

spaces, helping children to learn to use mathematics as part of their everyday lives. n There is a wide range of interesting resources available to children, which staff locate well so children can develop their ideas independently and build new ones.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff understand their responsibility to protect and safeguard children from harm. They can identify the signs and symptoms of abuse and know who to contact should they have concerns about a child's welfare. Robust risk assessments are in place to help ensure all areas of the nursery are safe and secure. The management team follows effective procedures to recruit new staff safely. For example, they complete appropriate vetting checks to ensure all staff are suitable to work with children. Regular supervision meetings between managers and staff discuss staff practice and offer further support. For example, further training is sought to improve staff practice. Parents are very happy with the service provided. They describe the staff as professional and very caring. They feel that they have helped their children to make progress in the nursery.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The manager effectively monitors children progress from the frequent observations completed by staff. This enables them to work together to identify and support any potential gaps in children's progress. Staff interact very well with children to help support their communication and language development. They introduce new and interesting words as children play that help extend their vocabulary.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff provide a warm welcome to all families and embrace their different cultures, languages and backgrounds positively. Staff are good role models. They provide children with positive examples of how to interact with others, such as listening and sharing. Children use these examples effectively and behave well. Staff provide children with ongoing praise and encouragement, which supports children's feelings of motivation and interest to learn. Children in all age groups develop very secure physical skills. They explore the indoor environment confidently, and babies learn to crawl and walk in the ample space in the baby room. Children are provided with healthy options during mealtimes and follow appropriate hygiene practices, helping to establish good habits and understanding about promoting their health.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are motivated to learn and enjoy making choices. They are confident to explore and discover. Children listen attentively to others and are eager to make their own contributions to discussions. All children, including those children who speak English as an additional language and children who have specific learning needs, are working at expected levels of development. Children learn about linking sounds and letters. Older children apply these skills as they begin linking sounds to create simple words and sentences.
