Effectiveness of leadership and management is outstanding

The manager is highly effective and she uses an excellent range of professional development opportunities to help motivate staff and to maintain the excellent practice achieved. For example, staff often video record their practice and are encouraged to consider how they can further enhance the quality of their teaching. The team continually strives to achieve high-quality practice. For example, a focused development plan is in place to help provide even more exciting ways of enthusing the boys' interest even further in mathematics and writing. The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Highly effective partnership working with other professionals working with the children means that children's welfare and education are supported extremely well. Staff have an excellent understanding of child protection and wider safeguarding issues.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

The highly effective deployment of staff means that all children are supported extremely well to take part in the wealth of activities provided to help them progress. Staff have a very precise learning intention for all the activities, and their interactions are excellent in increasing children's vocabulary and introducing new ideas and concepts. Staff are highly knowledgeable and skilled in how to promote children's literacy. For example, they provide the highest level of challenge and encourage children to think about what letter sounds words end in. They creatively combine an excellent range of everyday household objects, real fruit, vegetables and natural resources for children to use to be creative and imaginative.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff work with parents and use the stay-and-play sessions and the book and activity bags very successfully to help promote children's health, development and behaviour. Staff make excellent use of visual aids, such as puppets, to help children understand the codes of behaviour in place. Mealtimes are successfully used to help children develop a comprehensive understanding of the benefits of a healthy diet. Staff provide very rich and challenging outdoor areas where children indulge in their physical play and take controlled risks, such as climbing trees. Staff work closely with parents to find out about the uniqueness of each child and their family customs. They use this information very well to help children learn about each other and to respect any differences.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children, including those receiving additional funding, make consistently high rates of progress from their starting points in preparation for school. Children display high levels of interest and concentration during all activities. Even the youngest children show excellent listening and attention skills during group times and are eager to take part. For example, children used sticks, rolling, tapping, rubbing and hiding them during a music session. The pre-school children thoroughly enjoy learning and show an excellent understanding of phonics and how to recognise numbers and count. Children thoroughly enjoy stories, repeating the new words they hear and learn and talking to staff about their ideas.
