Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The quality of teaching and learning is good. Staff provide opportunities for children to develop mathematical skills. For example, children enjoy counting up to 20 in group activities. Children learn about the world around them by participating in dance activities which include songs from different cultures. Staff have a secure knowledge and understanding of children's learning and development. However, staff do not always plan effectively for children who require more targeted support to enhance communication and language skills. Children have daily access to a large garden where they can develop physical skills, such as climbing and balancing.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children thrive in this caring, nurturing nursery. They form secure and very trusting relationships with their key person and other staff. Staff are positive role models who use consistent gentle reminders of expectations. Children listen carefully to adults and treat each other with sensitivity. Older children support younger children during large-group activities. Children are encouraged to develop a sense of achievement. For example they enjoy taking a bow after singing a song. Staff support children's understanding of healthy lifestyles. Children talk about the importance of brushing teeth to prevent cavities and exercising to keep you strong.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are happy and keen to share their learning with others. Children make progress from their starting points. Staff are aware of those children whose starting points are below those of other children. They discuss this with parents and put plans in place to support the child's learning. Children gain key skills and positive attitudes to support the next stage in their learning. They demonstrate good listening and attention skills. They confidently operate technology resources and share their delight when playing a hide- and-seek game on the computer.
