Effectiveness of leadership and management is outstanding

Safeguarding is effective. Managers and staff have an excellent understanding of how to protect children from harm. Staff are vigilant, well deployed and adult-to-child ratios are well maintained. Staff complete very thorough risk assessments to ensure that the premises are clean and safe and teach children to manage risks confidently. Highly inspirational managers lead the staff and nursery provision with vigour. Recruitment procedures and suitability checks for new staff are thorough. Staff are supported well through a planned induction process, regular supervision and staff meetings. Managers use highly effective self-evaluation as a critical part of everyday activity. Staff work highly effectively together to drive meaningful improvements.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff focus exceptionally well to meet the next steps in children's learning. For example, children who benefit from one-to-one support take part in small-group activities. Children show excellent thinking skills and high levels of determination, for example, during a science experiment. Children are enthralled and excited as they build a sandpit volcano. They are fascinated as they see the lava pouring out of the top like a real volcano. At times, staff do not make the very best use of opportunities to introduce and extend mathematical language during children's play. Staff plan an excellent range of sensory activities to develop children's learning. For example, babies show delight as they explore painting with their hands and various rollers. They begin to communicate through gestures, expressions and single words. Staff support children to develop excellent language skills. For example, toddlers show excellent levels of interest as they

participate in a singing session with visual aids. Staff skilfully support them to develop their listening skills and to express their own ideas. Older children speak very well and talk about their preferences. They listen carefully to each other as they share news from home.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

All children are given ample opportunities to develop their independence through everyday activities. Children are very kind to each other and quick to use their manners. They eagerly volunteer to be 'helpers' and show great confidence to help with setting the table for meals or tidying away. Children enjoy nutritious and healthy meals tailored precisely to their individual needs. A healthy lifestyle is actively encouraged through high-quality meals and a strong focus on physical activity. Babies excel in their physical development. They confidently practise their walking and learn to climb, safe in the knowledge that staff are nearby for support.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

Children are extremely eager and consistently show excellent levels of confidence and involvement in their learning. Pre-school children demonstrate remarkable skills in linking letters to their sounds and in their early writing. All children, including those who have special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who speak English as an additional language, make high rates of progress from their starting points. Children are exceptionally well prepared for school or the next stage in their learning.
