This provision is outstanding

n The management team demonstrates an extremely strong commitment to sustaining a high-quality nursery provision. The self-evaluation is accurate and intently focused on improving even further the outcomes for children. Staff, parents and children are fully involved in this constant reflective practice. Teaching is excellent. n Staff are highly skilled and have a deep understanding of how children learn. Staff provide stimulating activities and meticulously enhance activities further. This ensures children are fully engaged, which supports strong learning and development. Children become very independent and confident, and their behaviour is excellent. n Managers use very successful ways to engage parents in their children's learning. They share information through a broad range of effective strategies. For instance, parents attend workshops, such as how to promote children's physical health and oral hygiene.

This provision is outstanding

Staff have developed highly effective partnerships and good communication with an extensive network of other professionals. n Staff strive to achieve the best possible outcomes for children. They recognise that clear communication is essential for the child and their parents. This has a very positive impact on supporting parents and on the welfare and development of their children. Additional funding is focused extremely carefully to maximise the positive impact on children's outcomes.

Effectiveness of leadership and management is outstanding

Managers inspire a culture of excellence throughout the nursery. They are passionate about their role in supporting staff to be reflective in their approach with children. Managers have a well-embedded policy for staff recruitment and induction. The staff are supported extraordinarily well through supervisions, regular meetings and training, including disseminating any new knowledge learned, to ensure they are always developing their skills. Safeguarding is effective. Staff are very secure in the procedures to follow should they have concerns regarding a child's welfare. Staff monitor and track the progress of individual children and different groups particularly well. This enables them to identify any gaps rapidly and provide exceptionally good support for children.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff make detailed and thoughtful observations of children's learning. They successfully capture children's natural curiosity and imagination, and extend their learning in fascinating ways. For example, children who are enthused by dinosaurs see them in their large prehistoric display. Teaching is highly responsive to children's needs and ideas as they sing songs or listen to a story. For example, staff ask thoughtful questions to extend children's understanding and use props to enhance the story. Children's self-confidence and problem-solving skills are promoted remarkably well. For example, the outdoor area allows children to assess risk for themselves. They gauge how to negotiate large reels safely and consider how they could make changes to the layout of the balancing beams. Children enjoy finding out about their community. For instance, they enjoy outings and forest school activities, visit a stable and the fire station, and explore cultural festivals.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff have an excellent knowledge of children's backgrounds and very quickly become perceptive of their needs. They continually exchange information with parents, which helps inform the precise care plans in place for children. Children have made extremely strong attachments with staff and they are happy and content. They enjoy nutritious and healthy meals tailored precisely to their individual needs. Children demonstrate an excellent understanding of healthy foods and the effect food has on their bodies. For example, they state that eating vegetables helps their bones and teeth.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children make very good or rapid progress. Children are highly motivated and eager to learn. They gain an abundance of skills that helps to prepare them superbly for future learning and the eventual move to school. For example, children begin to recognise their name and spell out the letters, and older children read some words, write their own name and solve simple mathematical problems. Children develop excellent levels of independence and learn how to tend to their self-care needs.
