Effectiveness of leadership and management is outstanding

Safeguarding is effective. The manager and staff are highly vigilant and clearly understand their duty to protect children. They know the procedures to follow regarding a child protection concern. Ongoing staff development is seen as extremely important to the manager. Through regular and extremely thorough supervisory arrangements, she carefully plans targeted training sessions for staff to enhance their in-depth knowledge. The highly rigorous systems of monitoring children's progress successfully support all children, especially those who speak English as an additional language, in making excellent continual progress from their starting points.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff use their expert knowledge to ensure all children are consistently involved. They provide an extremely wide range of stimulating activities throughout the nursery. For example, children happily revelled in exciting play experiences, as they squeezed real snow brought from outside and watched it turn to water. Teaching is highly motivational. Staff are exceptionally enthusiastic and organise a wide range of exciting play activities that are precisely suited to the age and stage of children's development. They make learning highly enjoyable. They expertly adapt their teaching to cater for younger children. For example, staff make use of excellent props when reading stories and speak in different languages to further contribute to the support of children who speak English as an additional language.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Children gain an excellent understanding of how to keep healthy and safe. Staff give the utmost priority to keeping children safe. Children listen extremely well and follow instructions carefully. For example, they consistently show excellent behaviour and line up patiently waiting when going indoors and out. All children develop a deep positive sense of self, and of their place in the world. For instance, children enjoy reading dual- language books and listen intently to stories read by their parents, who visit the setting regularly. The manager is fully aware of the importance of increasing the resources to reflect children's home experiences and strengthen their already excellent understanding of the wider world.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

Children acquire the key skills required in excellent preparation for their eventual move on to school. Two-year-old children show extremely high levels of engagement and concentration. For example, they delight in mixing paint and pasta, and show increasingly high levels of independence and confidence in social situations. Older children skilfully balance on the low-level apparatus and delight in completing obstacle courses. This develops their physical skills extremely well. All children are rapidly progressing from their starting points.
