Safeguarding is effective. The management team and staff have an excellent understanding of their roles and responsibilities in protecting children.

A sharply focused and continuous evaluation of practice and meticulous monitoring of children's progress helps to identify areas for improvement. For example, staff have identified ways to extend the opportunities children have to explore the local community and learn about different ways of life. Identified staff training, including supporting children's mathematical skills, impacts exceptionally well on children's outcomes.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

High-quality teaching enhances children's enjoyment of learning. Children are eager to learn and benefit significantly from an excellent mix of adult-led and child-initiated activities. Children's keen desire to engage in imaginative play has been skilfully extended. Staff develop the role-play area to include real objects, such as food, and follow children's interests by adding a pretend hairdresser's shop for them to explore. This supports children's personal, social and emotional development and communication and language skills exceptionally well. Management and staff identify any emerging differences in learning. They plan targeted, timely support to raise children's learning to the highest possible level.

Staff are superb role models, treating children with the utmost respect. A very effective key-person system supports children's emotional well-being extremely well. Children enjoy regular fresh air in the outdoors and engage in energetic play, to develop their physical skills and promote their understanding of healthy lifestyles. Children learn about keeping safe and managing risks as they check the outdoor area for hazards before going outside. Children are exceptionally well behaved. They follow the nursery's 'golden rules' and demonstrate care and respect for each other.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

All children make consistently high levels of progress from their starting points. They are confident, active learners who demonstrate high levels of curiosity and interest. Children engage in fun and innovative activities to support their early literacy and mathematics skills. They delight in playing a 'shake-and-stop' game with musical instruments as they listen to the different sounds made. Children are extremely well prepared for the next stage in their learning and the eventual move on to school.
