Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The manager has worked hard to address the actions raised at the last inspection by evaluating the nursery's practice and procedures. She has increased opportunities for parents to contribute to their children's learning at home and in the nursery. The manager provides good leadership and uses regular staff supervision sessions to identify training needs. She checks the quality of staff practice and provides clear feedback where improvement is needed. The manager has invested in quality staff training to improve practice. For example, she has purchased a package of online training and has joined a network with other local nurseries to share best practice and training costs.

years. They give copies to parents for their comments and to share with health visitors.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff use comprehensive and accurate processes to assess each child's progress. They use the information to plan for children's next steps in their learning. Staff support children well to develop their communication skills and learn simple mathematics as children search for gold coins in their hunt for treasure. For example, they suggest where children might look, using words like 'under', 'behind' and 'above'. Children and staff count coins together and add them to the treasure chest. Children enhance their fine-motor skills as they play a fishing game with magnetic tools and make pictures with paint and glitter. Staff sit alongside children as they play and talk to them about what they are doing. They effectively promote children's language skills as they show them how words are formed. Staff then help children to join syllables together to make words. Children enjoy looking at books and answering simple questions about the story. This

shows that children understand the story and ignites their interest in early reading.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff are nurturing and continually offer praise and encouragement to children. Children develop their independence as they serve their own food and clear away their crockery after eating. Many children can attend to their own toileting needs and personal hygiene. They wash their hands at mealtimes and after messy activities. Staff are positive role models and sit with children at mealtimes to demonstrate expected behaviour and manners. Children develop their social skills as they talk to each other and to staff, making links to their family and what they do home. Staff know children well and recognise when they need extra care or support, such as when children are feeling sad.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are working comfortably within the expected range for their age and stage of development. They are eager to learn and progress well from their starting points. Children know their routines and can follow simple rules. They develop confidence as they learn to persevere with small tasks. Staff liaise with teachers at local schools so that children are fully prepared to start in Reception class. As a result, children are ready to embark on the next stage of their learning.
